Carnivor Cabernet Sauvignon California 750 ML

Inky dark purple colour. The nose exhibits ripe black currant, cherry, sage and tobacco. Rounded palate, rather full with crushed dark berries, vanilla, generous and a fairly long finish. \n \n Producer Information \n Carnivor Cabernet is a California table wine produced primarily from Lodi-grown Cabernet Sauvignon although a Zinfandel label is also produced. The wine is produced from extremely ripe grapes and is bold in character with a deep color and dark fruit aromas. It is produced in Modesto, California, by E.& J. Gallo. Grapes are machine harvested, then cold-soaked prior to alcoholic fermentation to extract tannin and color. Fermentation lasts four to six days and the wine is aged on oak before being blended with a small amount of Petite Sirah, boosting the color and structure of the final wine. The Zinfandel follows a similar process although it is blended with a little Cabernet Sauvignon.
