Goldstrike Cabernet Sauvignon Bin 1849 2016

Goldstrike Bin 1849 is pure Cab, grown at the base of the historic Sierra Foothills – epicenter of the California Gold Rush and home to notoriously rich, ripe reds. Factor in the superb vintage (2014 is California’s third great year in a row), and all the conditions are right for maximum flavor impact. The wine was treated to a 16-month slumber in French oak, imparting a spicy smoothness.

Look forward to a deep, red-purple color, with hints of tobacco leaf and smoke accenting the intense berry aroma. The palate is rich and powerful, introducing blueberry and sweet cassis, along with smooth tannins. Dark chocolate and spice round out the long finish.

Follow the label’s advice and enjoy Goldstrike with a plate of beans by the campfire, or a rack of lamb. It’s also a ‘golden’ choice for steaks, burgers and hearty pastas.
