The wine has a smooth and velvety texture, with a long and satisfying finish. Buck Shack Cabernet Sauvignon is a perfect choice for those who appreciate the complexity and elegance of a well-crafted wine.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Buck Shack Cabernet Sauvignon is a medium-bodied red with a dark ruby hue.Aromas of dark fruit and spice lead the way, with hints of blackberry, cassis, and clove. On the palate, flavors of blackberry and cassis reveal themselves alongside subtle notes of spice and pepper. The tannins are well-integrated and smooth, making this a perfect pairing for grilled meats or hard cheeses.

ORIGINS

Winery: Buck Shack

Region: North Coast California

The North Coast of California boasts some of the most renowned vineyards and wineries in the world. Located in the northern part of the state, the North Coast is home to the Napa Valley, Sonoma County, and Mendocino County, all of which are recognised for their exceptional wines. The North Coast of California has a long and storied history of winemaking, dating back to the mid-1800s. The region was first planted with vines by Spanish missionaries, who planted Mission grapes in the area. In the late 1800s, Italian immigrants began to settle in the region, bringing with them their own grape varieties and winemaking techniques. By the early 1900s, the North Coast had become a major wine-producing region, with many of the wineries still in operation today.
