Leia Vintners – Cabernet Sauvignon 2023
California – USA 🇺🇸
Overview
A modern California Cabernet crafted for approachability, showing ripe fruit and oak integration without the heaviness sometimes found in the style.
Aromas & Flavors
Ripe black cherry dominates, with cranberry and strawberry adding brightness. Hints of oak spice and subtle vanilla round out the bouquet, giving it both warmth and freshness.
Mouthfeel
Full-bodied but balanced — fresh acidity lifts the fruit while smooth, polished tannins keep the structure in check. The finish is long, fruit-driven, and layered with spice.
Food Pairing
Pairs beautifully with grilled steak, BBQ short ribs, or lamb chops, but also versatile enough for roasted chicken or hearty mushroom dishes.
The Verdict
An easy-to-love California Cabernet that balances richness with freshness. Fruit, spice, and structure come together in harmony — a strong everyday choice that still feels polished.
Cheers!
