Wente Vineyards, a historic winery located in the Livermore Valley of California, is renowned for its commitment to quality and tradition. The Wente Cabernet Sauvignon Wetmore Vineyard is crafted from Cabernet Sauvignon grapes grown in the esteemed Livermore Valley appellation. This wine showcases a meticulous winemaking process, including fermentation in stainless steel tanks followed by aging in a combination of French and American oak barrels, which imparts a balanced oak influence. The wine exhibits a rich flavor profile with notes of dark cherry, blackberry, and hints of vanilla and spice, supported by a structured tannin backbone and a lingering finish. It pairs beautifully with grilled meats, hearty stews, and aged cheeses.

This is an elegant, well-balanced and polished wine that has lots of fruit flavors accented by light black-olive and oak nuances. It's medium to full in body, fairly concentrated and just lightly tannic to firm up the texture.
