Cabernet Sauvignon is the most widely grown grape on Red Mountain. This big, bold wine boasts ripe blackberry, cherry and baking spices. There's a hint of caramel on the finish of this wine. The tannins are assertive and show up on the sides and back of the palate. With a medium plus body and full of flavor, this Cab is fabulous with braised beef ribs and pork chop with a dark berry chutney.

This 100% Cabernet Sauvignon is from Quintessence Vineyard, which is a part of the Shaw Vineyards WA Family. Quintessence Vineyard is the largest conitiguous vineyard in the Red Mountain AVA. Led by Dick and Wendy Shaw and managed by Marshall Edwards this site is home to several red Bordeaux varietals and also a small amount of Sauvignon Blanc.
