A toasty, spicy aroma and rich blackberry jam and maple flavors give this rather soft wine an easy, almost-sweet expression. \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.
