Cabernet Sauvignon
Réserve • Pays d'Oc, France
"The strength of the varietal: a structured red where blackcurrant and spicy notes blend into an elegant finish. The nobility of Southern France with the historical seal of B&G."
Balanced Power
Barton & Guestier's **Cabernet Sauvignon Réserve** is a tribute to structure. Hailing from **Pays d'Oc**, this wine takes advantage of the Mediterranean climate to achieve perfect ripening. B&G applies its three centuries of expertise to ensure that the grape's natural robustness is integrated with elegance, using a measured aging in oak that contributes notes of tobacco and spices without overshadowing the purity of the black fruit.
