Cabernet Sauvignon is a natural cross between Cabernet Franc and Sauvignon Blanc that occurred in Southern
France in the 1800s. It also is a major variety used in red Bordeaux wines. In California, Cabernet Sauvignon is the
most widely planted red wine grape. A long-season variety, Cabernet requires ample time to fully ripen, resulting in rich,
age-worthy wines.
