Product Description
Dense purple in color, this wine opens with aromas of dark red fruit, blueberry, black cherry, cassis and cola with a dusting of baking spice. The wine is velvety and lush presenting delicious flavors of black cherry and blackberry with backnotes of coffee, mocha and a hint of vanilla. The flavors are complemented by lively acidity and fine tannins that lifts the wine suggesting a long life. The finish is long, supple and mouthwatering. This Paso Robles Cabernet is the perfect match for local Santa Maria style BBQ or tri tip with grilled vegetables.
Producer Description
Born from the grit of Paso Robles, CA, Iron + Sand is a nostalgic nod to the natural draw of the historic hot springs, Iron Spring and Sand Spring, that propelled Paso Robles into a bustling destination known as “California’s oldest watering place”. Iron and sand are also important elements in the wine’s classic Paso terroir, as the sturdy iron trellising supports the bearing vines and the alluvial, well-drained sandy soils are the perfect match for Cabernet Sauvignon. Sourced predominantly from two sustainably farmed vineyards within the Paso Robles AVA, our winemaker Lee Miyamura uses neutral oak allowing the Paso Robles terroir to shine through.
