Fernando Candelario Los Carneros Cabernet Sauvignon 2021
About the wine
Captivating Cabernet from an unlikely subregion of California
Fernando’s Cabernet and brimming with juicy black fruit flavors and a long, dark chocolate and toffee finish – a classic red with a cool-climate twist.
With Angel support behind him, Fernando harvested Cabernet from cool Carneros – the Napa/Sonoma subregion known for Pinot, Chardonnay and sparkling – to bring you a vibrant rendition of California's most famous variety.
Because there’s not much Cabernet in Carneros, there isn’t much of this to go around (300 cases), so if you want to get in on this extremely limited-edition red and taste what it’s all about, grab your bottles now before it’s sold out.
The icing on the cake? – the beautiful label art by Ruben Briseno Reveles. Even the bottle is a showstopper!
