Founded more than 125 years ago, Wente Vineyards is the country’s oldest, continuously operated family-owned winery. Today, the winery maintains its leadership role in California winegrowing under ownership and management by the Fourth and Fifth Generations of the Wente family.  Blending traditional and innovative winemaking practices, the winery draws from approximately 3,000 acres of sustainably farmed Estate vineyards to create an outstanding portfolio of fine wines.

With their undulating terrain, meandering Arroyos, well-drained rocky soils, and unique mesoclimates, the Southern Hills vineyards are located in the most desirable settings with exposures ideal for growing Cabernet Sauvignon of distinct character, depth and intensity. 

RECOMMENDATIONS: Try with grilled pork chops or veal, grilled vegetable risotto and mushroom dishes.   
WINEMAKER’S COMMENTS: This Cabernet Sauvignon is deep red in colour with mouth-filling flavours of black cherry and plum. Rich, yet approachable tannins provide a long, smooth finish.
