    Winemaker Notes

    This Cabernet Sauvignon is sourced from three key Cabernet-producing regions. Paso Robles brings the powerful, structured foundation of the wine; Paso Robles' hot climate provides Cabernet fruit with ideal tannins, phenolics, and flavor. San Lucas' (Monterey) warm days and cool nights add bright red fruit and herbal notes. Lodi, with its higher than average temperature and lots of sun, contribute to jammy, flavor-packed fruit with ripe tannin.

    Slow Press Cabernet undergoes malolactic fermentation and is then aged in American oak barrels for 9 months. This process delivers bold, concentrated flavors of dark fruits, blackberries and cassis, with notes of tobacco and leather. Its robust structure and firm tannins grip the taste buds, leaving a velvety finish.

    Slow Press, California
    Our philosophy can be summed up in 3 words: Quality takes time. Slow Press® is a homage to and resurrection of the winemaking craft. As a veteran winemaker, Blake Bomben has a remarkable talent for cultivating some of the best coastal California grapes and turning them into distinguished wines. Gentle handling of the grapes and a slowed fermentation process helps generate the purest, most concentrated fruit character. The result: a rich, yet balanced style with intense flavor.

    Covering the most vine acreage in the state compared to any other red wine variety, Cabernet Sauvignon produces as much wine in California as Merlot and Pinot Noir combined. The state’s diverse terrain and microclimates, as well as the freedom of its winemakers, allow for an incredible range of wine styles from this single grape.

    California’s most famous region—and especially for Cabernet Sauvignon—is the acclaimed Napa Valley. While Cabernet is successful throughout the world, rarely has it achieved such merit as it does from the Napa Valley. At this point the two are so intrinsically linked that it is difficult to discuss one without the other.

    Napa’s closest neighbor, Sonoma County, does an impressive job keeping up with Napa’s fame and glory. Alexander Valley, Sonoma Mountain, Moon Mountain and Knights Valley contribute to the lot of some of California’s top-rated Cabernet Sauvignon.

    Lake County in California’s North Coast has become a focus for some of Napa’s more respected growers. From the Central Coast come iconic examples of classic California Cabernet; Lodi and the Sierra Foothills are great budget-friendly sources of amicable Cabernets.
