Cabernet sauvignon is a red wine shows nuances on the palate such as blackcurrant, leather, cedar, spices and black fruit. This aromatic complexity and the aging potential provided by its firm tannins have earned it worldwide recognition through the wines of Bordeaux, whose top producers sell their bottles for hundreds of dollars apiece. Cab sav is grown widely, and is one of the pillars of Napa Valley's exceptional reputation. Grown in most wine regions, Italian "Super Tuscan" wines, California "Cult cabs" and many Australian wines make excellent wines from the grape. To learn more, visit SavvySipper.
