WINE DESCRIPTION

Cupcake Black Forest (Decadent Red) is a rich and indulgent wine that is sure to please any red wine lover. Produced by Cupcake Vineyards, this wine comes from carefully selected vineyards in California's Central Coast region. The vineyards are known for their ideal growing conditions, including warm days and cool nights, which allow the grapes to develop complex flavors and aromas. The winemaking process involves aging the wine in oak barrels, which adds a subtle hint of vanilla and spice to the wine. The result is a full-bodied wine with notes of dark fruit, chocolate, and espresso. This wine is perfect for those who enjoy a bold and flavorful red wine that is both elegant and approachable.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This full-bodied red blend from Cupcake is a decadent treat for the senses.Aromas of ripe, dark cherries and blackberries are complemented by hints of black pepper and a smoky, toasty oak character. On the palate, the bright cherry and berry flavors are balanced perfectly by juicy acidity and firm tannins. The finish is long and memorable, with a lingering touch of toasted oak. Enjoy this robust red with rich, juicy meats or dark chocolate desserts.
