Description
The Big Easy Cabernet Sauvignon shows immediate nuances of red fruits, Chinese spice and a hint of damp earth. The palate is medium-bodied, loaded with succulent raspberries and cherries, sprinkled with dried goji berries on the finish. Crunchy tannins balance the primary fruit, deftly supported by soft, creamy oak and finished off by a pinch of mixed ground pepper. It’s easy-going, delicious and yet refined, reflecting the style of the vintage. Drink now and over the next 3-5 years.
Pairs well with hearty meat dishes like grilled steak, rack of lamb, or game. It also complements mature cheeses and braised dishes. The wine's bold, yet smooth character makes it versatile for various pairings, including beef tenderloin with roasted vegetables or mushroom risotto.
