Bourbon Barrel Cabernet Sauvignon

Tasting Notes

Inspired by the very best of California winemaking and Kentucky craft distilling, our Ménage à Trois Bourbon Barrel Cabernet Sauvignon melds notes of vanilla, brown sugar, smoke and spices for a truly indulgent experience. Jammy blueberry and blackberry flavors are cloaked in caramel and smoky spice, resulting in a beautifully structured wine with a rich mouthfeel and lingering finish.

Winemaker Notes

In our winemakers’ quest to create a distinctive twist on classic Cabernet Sauvignon, they sought grapes from select Alexander Valley Vineyards. This spectacular area of California’s North Coast AVA is known for producing fruit with rich, soulful flavors and intense varietal character. The wine was aged for three months in oak barrels that were previously used to craft 6-year-old Kentucky bourbon, lending to a unique, indulgent flavor profile.
