A brief on Cabernet Sauvignon & imported brands in India

5/18/2021

​Cabernet Sauvignon is the king of black grapes and grown globally. Cabernet is characterized by deep purple colour when young with high level of tannins gaining garnet tinges and mellowed tannins with age while cedar wood and tobacco notes are added to the Blackfruit aromas. These wines can age in bottles for decades because of its body, acidity, abundant flavor and tannins. Please note, whenever one speaks of age-worthy wines for any grape, it only refers to say 1% of the wines, the other 99% are meant for early consumption. 
Key wine regions for Cabernet Sauvignon
It is most popular for its age worthy wines from Bordeaux. The most classic Cabernet Sauvignon comes from Medoc or Pessac-Leognan sub-district of Graves. Chilean and Californian Cabernets are riper (more fruit driven) and soft. Australian Cabernet shows a hint of eucalyptus, and Coonawarra region is known for its big and bold wines. Tuscan wines, the “Super Tuscans” since 1940’s are using Cabernet sauvignon to blend with their Sangiovese to give it structure and body. These blends are marked by their remarkable acidity and flavor profile.
Cabernet Sauvignon & Food pairing
We would stick to continental favourites  of grilled meats and and aubergine lasagna for the vegetarians. We strongly suggest a sublime pairing of cabernet, 6-8 years and upwards to be paired with a hard cheese platter with prunes and nuts.
