Bonterra Cabernet Sauvignon (75cl, 14%)

Bonterra Cabernet Sauvignon is an organically grown Cabernet Sauvignon from Mendocino County, California, bottled at approximately 14% ABV in a 750 ml bottle. Bonterra Organic Estates is the largest winery to achieve Regenerative Organic Certified status. Grapes are harvested between mid-August and late October, then undergo warm fermentation in stainless steel tanks followed by full malolactic fermentation. The wine rests for 15 months in French oak barrels, 40% of which are new. Fruit is sourced from Mendocino County, Paso Robles and other California Cabernet regions. The nose shows Bing cherry, black currant, raspberry, dried herbs, cedar and vanilla. The palate is fruit-forward with dark cherry, blackberry, leather, tobacco and pencil shavings, with ripe tannins and balanced acidity. The finish is smooth, with dark currant, cedar, spice and dried cranberry.
