Cabernet Sauvignon - Red Wine Making Kit (Heavy-Bodied - 13.5% PABV)

Cabernet Sauvignon (ka-ber-NAY saw-vee-YOHN)

Cabernet Sauvignon is the world’s most popular red wine! Cabernet Sauvignon is very tannic when young and must be aged at least a decade, so is often blended with Merlot or Cabernet Franc to cut down on aging time and soften the tannins.

Taste: Aromas and flavors of blackcurrant, black cherry and blackberry, as well as vegetal notes of green bell pepper and mint, together with vanilla and spice from oak. 

Tannin: High

Acidity: Medium to high

Age: Most are made to be consumed within a few years of release, but higher quality wines need several years to soften their tannic structure and develop their full flavour profile.
