High End Cabernet Sauvignon Wine
High End Cabernet Sauvignon Wine
Cabernet Sauvignon is the notorious love child of Cabernet Franc and Sauvignon Blanc, it has inherited notable characteristics from both of its parents, and has used these to establish itself as the most planted grape in the world. High end Cabernet Sauvignon varies from region to region, but in general it is a full-bodied red with brooding dark fruit flavours and savoury tastes of black pepper.
