Cavalli Cabernet Sauvignon is a medium-bodied red made from grapes hand-picked and sorted in the early morning to preserve fruit quality. Fermentation took place in stainless steel tanks with two open pumpovers daily, followed by a week of extended skin contact after fermentation to build structure. Once pressed, the wine completed malolactic fermentation in tank and was matured for 24 months in French oak barriques, roughly 30% first-fill, for added depth and integration. The result is a wine defined by blackberry and cigar-box aromas, a richly structured palate, and a plush, lingering finish.
