The certified sustainable Southern Hills Cabernet Sauvignon delivers aromas of dark fruits, like cherry and plum, with a hint of baking spices that warm the palate. This smooth, easy-to-drink Cabernet is grown on California’s Central Coast. It pairs perfectly with grilled vegetables, cheese boards, rib-eye steak, and pizza.

The location and sun exposure of the California Certified Sustainable Southern Hills vineyard make it ideal for growing Cabernet Sauvignon of distinct character, depth, and intensity. Five generations of the Wente family have handcrafted fine wines that express the very best of its vineyards and winemaking expertise.

The 2021 Wente Southern Hills Cabernet Sauvignon is a classic example of an approachable California Cabernet. Clean and concise fruit leads every step of the way showcasing fresh blackberry, cassis, and black cherry which is supported by a delightful layering of oak-inspired flavors including chocolate and a touch of freshly baked gingerbread. The balanced, well-polished wine and the fruity substance, integrated oak, and underlying structure make it clear that this Wente fan favorite will drink beautifully for the next 3-5 years.
