Le P'tit Paysan offers intense blackberry, dark cherry aromas, chocolate, herbaceous and toasty notes on the palate. Medium-bodied, well-balanced with moderate and integrated tannins that give structure and liveliness to the wine.
A beautiful example of ‘old school’ California Cabernet made with minimal intervention from mature vineyards.
Pairs well with steak, duck, game, hearty stews, ribs, and dark, rich sauces.
