Facts Sheet

Richly textured on the palate, this Cabernet Sauvignon leaves an impression that is serious enough for the connoisseur, yet a great choice for anyone who simply enjoys a good glass of red wine. Pairs well with a range of casual dining options, from marinated beef kabobs to pasta, and can be enjoyed in its youth, or cellared gracefully up to three years.

Vintage

The windswept Cypress tree, the unmistakable signature plant of California’s coastal terrain, owes its gnarled appearance to the maritime air’s persistent movement inland and seaward. The ocean’s influence on the Central Coast winegrowing region is significant, keeping coastal and inland valleys refreshingly cool at night, while preserving the grape’s natural acidity. For Cypress Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2016 vintage was characterized by low winter rainfall, followed by a warm spring and moderate summer temperatures. This vintage produced dark colored Cabernet Sauvignon with ripe, pure varietal flavors. Our passionate commitment to our Cypress Vineyards red wines is to preserve and showcase the alluring black currant and cherry fruit flavors resplendent in grapes grown in the Central Coast.
