Cabernet Sauvignon
"An old school California rendition that doesn’t shy away from a little green pepper character - it’s all about enhancement of the fruit here. Taste the heritage!" - Rich Cook, The 2020 Critics Challenge: International Wine & Spirits Competition. Paso Robles has been garnering more attention from wine critics and wine lovers alike.

WINE REGION:
![Outline of Paso Robles](https://images.firstleaf.com/taxons/1848/normal/California_Central_Coast.png?1616011014)
Paso Robles
California's fastest-growing wine region is quickly gaining an international reputation for its innovative and boundary-breaking wines. Located halfway between LA and San Francisco, the Paso Robles AVA in San Luis Obispo County has two main zones. The eastern side has a hot and sunny climate with deep, rich soils producing plush, fruity wines with sweet ripe flavors. To the west, the cooling influence of the Pacific brings a zingy backbone to rich Zinfandel and Rhône favorites like Syrah and Viognier. Italian varietals like Sangiovese and Nebbiolo are also favorites of Paso Robles grape growers and wine drinkers.

ABOUT THE BRAND:
![large bunches of red grapes on the vine](/static/1194e56820adfeee543f9cb0c258b6e1/524cb/grapes-1.jpg)
Cartesian
French philosopher René Descartes advocated for logic and referencing the past to progress the future. Like Descartes, our winemakers at Cartesian are firm believers in learning from their predecessors. We push, experiment, and continually ask questions in the spirit of making our wines better. Versatile and worthy of examination, Cartesian wines allow you to deliberate life’s bigger questions rather than ponder your wine selection.
