St Huberts
2021 St Huberts The Stag Cabernet Sauvignon
Tasting Notes
The St. Huberts The Stag Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignon has a bountiful bouquet with hints of vanilla and sandalwood alongside fragrant red berry fruit aromas. On the palate, ripe brambleberry, blackberry, wild cherry, and dark plum notes sit alongside cinnamon, clove, and mocha spices. Spicier hints of black pepper add complexity, creating depth and balance, with a supple mouthfeel, that is layered and plentiful, finishing with great length and persistence.

Winemaking
Using a modern winemaking approach, the grapes were crushed and fermented an average of seven to 10 days in stainless steel tanks. Pump-overs were gently performed three times a day to extract optimum color and tannin. Post fermentation, a portion of the wine was integrated with French and American oak for up to two years to smooth and round the tannins, and add complexity and depth of flavor. Each of the lots were tasted daily to determine which would be selected for this wine.
Vineyard
Paso Robles enjoys greater day-to-night temperature swings than any other appellation in California. There is great diversity in the region, distinct microclimates, over 45 different soil types, and a long growing season. This makes Paso Robles an optimum region for producing premium wines, in particular Bordeaux varietals like Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Malbec, and Petit Verdot.
