MXN $1270

Grape: 100% Cabernet Sauvignon

Region: Napa Valley, California, USA

You’ll taste/smell: rich aromas of mocha, vanilla bean, toffee, and espresso, alongside a palate filled with cocoa powder, blackberries, and cassis. Bright acidity enhances the vivid red fruit flavors, which are complemented by deep, dark fruit notes. The wine finishes with layers of leather, toast, and chocolate-covered cherries, showcasing a well-rounded and complex profile. Classic oaky Cab from Napa.

Good to have it with: pairs wonderfully with hearty dishes like beef, lamb, venison, and mature cheeses.
