Caussin
A multi faceted and curious wine with a captivating smell that seamlessly blends the sweetness of black currant and creme de cassis with the freshness of menthol, all at the same time offering a refreshing and vibrant acidity. The tannins are still quite firm, but the all around composition is well-balanced and satisfying, with a medium length close that leaves the profile feeling refreshed and revitalized.
Nakagawa Tabink
Robust and fruity wine with a distinct blackcurrant and blackberry nose, concentrated black fruit layers on the palate, and a wisp of cake and cream. The taste is reminiscent of chocolate and coffee, with a distinctly North American flavor profile. and yet it shares some similarities with a classic Cabernet Sauvignon, it differs significantly from an old-world style like a claret. The wine is a good example of this particular style, but its high price point makes it a luxury item. Despite this, it is a highly delightful wine that is worth returning to.
Clubmed
Polished and sophisticated wine with a nuanced yet fruity character, paired by the oak's soft nuances, resulting in a layered and long-lasting finish.

Ridge Vineyards Estate Cabernet Sauvignon is celebrated for its rich, full-bodied profile, with prominent blackberry, cassis, and blackcurrant flavors. While some appreciate its smooth tannins and balanced acidity, others note firm tannins requiring aging. The wine's complexity is enhanced by oak, vanilla, and chocolate notes. It's praised for its elegance and aging potential, though some find it pricey.
The Ridge Vineyards Estate Cabernet Sauvignon is a highly regarded wine known for its exceptional quality and craftsmanship. This wine is produced by Ridge Vineyards, a renowned winery located in California's Santa Cruz Mountains. The Estate Cabernet Sauvignon showcases the classic characteristics of the varietal, with a deep ruby color and a complex bouquet of blackcurrant, blackberry, and dark chocolate. On the palate, it offers a rich and full-bodied experience, with velvety tannins and a long, lingering finish. This wine displays excellent balance and structure, with well-integrated oak and a harmonious blend of fruit flavors. It is a wine that can be enjoyed now, but also has the potential to age gracefully for several years, allowing its flavors to further develop and evolve. Pairing this Ridge Vineyards Estate Cabernet Sauvignon with grilled steak or roasted lamb would be an excellent choice, as the wine's robust character complements the richness and depth of these dishes. It also pairs well with aged cheeses, such as Gouda or Cheddar.
