2005 Cabernet Sauvignon Magnum

The 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon is the third release in our line of distinguished Cabernets.  It is also the first large format offering from the Black Stallion Winery.  Only 131 bottles of this special release were produced.

Winemaker Notes: The 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon grapes came from the distinctive Oakville and Yountville districts.  Our goal for this Cabernet Sauvignon was to create a wine with complex flavors and good structure.  To achieve this in the 2005 vintage, we blended in a small amount of Malbec.  This component contributes fruit and elegant tannins.  The result is a full bodied wine with rich concentrated fruit accents, soft integrated tannins and a long finish.

Food Pairing: Serve with prime rib, fillet of lamb, roast duck or artisan cheeses.
