B&G Réserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2021

Overview

The B&G Réserve Cabernet Sauvignon is a distinguished wine that embodies the expertise and passion of the Barton & Guestier legacy. Crafted from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, this wine hails from the Languedoc-Roussillon region, where varying terroirs—from the cool clay and limestone of Limoux to the warmer gravels of the Gard—enhance its complexity and depth. The careful winemaking process, including controlled fermentation and micro-oxygenation, results in a wine with a rich profile, showcasing the ideal balance of fruit, smooth tannins, and subtle spice. This wine is perfect for pairing with grilled meats, pasta, spicy dishes, and cheese, offering an elegant and versatile choice for any occasion.

Tasting Notes

The B&G Réserve Cabernet Sauvignon presents a deep garnet red hue with purple highlights. Its intense nose features ripe black fruits, including blackcurrant and blackberry, complemented by toasty and spicy undertones. On the palate, it is round and smooth, with velvety tannins that deliver a silky mouthfeel. The long fruity aftertaste is enriched with notes of vanilla and licorice, adding layers of complexity to the wine. The wine’s harmonious structure and smooth finish make it a perfect companion for grilled red meats, pasta dishes, spicy cuisine, and cheese.
