With hearty meat dishes Cabernet Sauvignon is best known in Bordeaux where, together with Merlot and Cabernet Franc, it produces high-class wines. It needs a lot of heat to ripen, otherwise it becomes green and juicy with a taste of green pepper. Too much heat makes it soft and jammy, with a taste of blackcurrant. Cabernet Sauvignon produces very aromatic wines with scents of blackcurrant, vanilla, spices (pepper), tobacco, plum, cherry, toasted bread and cedar. The wines usually have a long shelf life, contain a lot of tannin and should in principle ripen in barriques. By applying modern vinification techniques, young wines can now also be drinkable quickly. In general, the wines have a high phenol content, they are purple (young) or dark red (old) and have a lot of power and structure. Cabernet Sauvignon can be found all over the world. Wherever someone wants to make a ’serious‘ wine, Cabernet Sauvignon is planted.
