Cabernet Sauvignon is a prominent red wine grape variety known for producing full-bodied wines with a rich flavor profile. Characterized by notes of blackcurrant, blackberry, and plum, it often features hints of green bell pepper, tobacco, and cedar. The wine typically exhibits dark fruit aromas complemented by herbal notes such as mint or eucalyptus, along with vanilla and spice from oak aging.
This varietal is primarily grown in renowned regions like Bordeaux in France, Napa Valley in the USA, Coonawarra in Australia, and the Chilean Central Valley. With its robust tannic structure and smooth finish, Cabernet Sauvignon pairs excellently with grilled meats like steak or lamb, hearty stews, aged cheeses, and even dark chocolate desserts. Its aging potential makes it a favorite for collectors and ideal for special occasions or formal dinners.
