Castle Rock Columbia Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

Tasting Notes and Characteristics:

The first sip of Castle Rock Columbia Valley Cabernet Sauvignon wraps you in a plush embrace of ripe black cherry and subtle cedar, instantly evoking the warmth of a fireside evening. Crafted in the United States with an alcohol by volume of 13.5%, this Cabernet Sauvignon showcases the classic depth and structure that Washington’s Columbia Valley is celebrated for, balancing dark fruit flavors with hints of cocoa and a whisper of vanilla from gentle oak aging. Its robust tannins and vibrant acidity make it an ideal companion for a perfectly seared steak or tender lamb, elevating each bite with its lingering finish and harmonious complexity.
