Tasting Notes and Characteristics:

The first sip of Ward & Pierce Cabernet Sauvignon 1.5L wraps you in a velvet embrace, unfolding layers of ripe black cherry, cassis, and subtle cedar that linger long after the glass is set down. Crafted in the United States with an alcohol by volume of 14.00%, this Cabernet Sauvignon delivers a harmonious balance between bold fruit and refined tannins, making it an ideal companion for a perfectly seared steak or a wedge of aged cheddar.
