About the wine
Richard's bold, beloved Paso Cab returns, more refined than ever
Richard’s top-notch Paso Cab is a scrumptious, smooth powerhouse, packed with brooding dark fruit flavors and a dash of savoriness that carry on through a long, lip-smacking finish.
For his stunning 5th vintage of this Cab, Richard used your support to source top-tier grapes from his personal pick of 4 high-end Paso vineyards, to show off the highest level of Cabernet from the region he knows best.
This Cabernet is ready for sipping on arrival, Richard says, but with this much complexity and depth it’ll age gracefully for up to a decade. Put a few bottles away and see how the flavors evolve and develop over the years – if you’re able to wait, that is...
Best before
If you like a big Cab then drink some now and save some for later. This wine will age well for 8 -12+ years or more, but it really depends on what you like. If you like big tannins, big fruit and noticable oak notes, then don't age it too long. Cabs age elegantly, but you may prefer it with all the bells and whistles and generosity of the king of grape varietals now.
Serving advice
This wine may open up faster if decanted. Often the wines are shipped slightly before optimal, so please keep this in mind when tasting.
Food match
This is a great wine for a grilled Rib Eye steak served with roasted potatoes or Rosemary roasted chicken with soft polenta.

Meet the winemaker - Richard Bruno
Years Angel-funded: 2013-2023
- Richard Bruno is exactly what we love in a winemaker– the quiet achiever behind the scenes at some of the world's most famous wine brands. He's made wine for Francis Ford Coppola and Don Sebastiani, the latter of which was named Winery of the Year TWICE under his watch.
- During his decades making wine for famous wineries and earning them 90+ scores, he has traveled all up and down California's coastal wine regions. His experience and familiarity with the terrain allow him to sniff out the best-bang-for-buck pretty much anywhere in the state.
- Launching one's wine brand is hard and expensive, so Richard is using Angel funding – and he's able to focus on winemaking, instead of selling wine.
