Cabernet Sauvignon is dry and full-bodied, and is prized for its long aging potential. It's also known for displaying characteristic green flavors like bell pepper, eucalyptus and mint. Cabernet grown in California tends to be more fruit-forward and more mellow, with rich dark fruit notes of blueberry and blackberry as well as earth, dust, mocha and cedar. The moderate to high tannin levels and concentrated flavors in Californian Cab make it a sensational food wine.
