Fossil Point
Cabernet Sauvignon
On California's Central Coast, Fossil Point Winery’s vines are never far from the influence of the sea. Sunny afternoons are tempered by brisk marine breezes, and the climate is directly shaped by the seasonal currents of the Pacific Ocean. Grown in select Certified Sustainable vineyards in the Paso Robles region, this Cabernet Sauvignon showcases a beautiful expression of big bold red wines that the area is capable of. This wine is perfectly balanced with just the right amount of weightiness and an approachable acidity. Classic flavors of dark ripe fruits, licorice, and cocoa are highlighted alongside velvety tannins thanks for 18 months aging in French oak barrels.

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:

Fossil Point
On California's Central Coast, our vines are never far from the influence of the sea. Sunny afternoons are tempered by brisk marine breezes, and our climate is directly shaped by the seasonal currents of the Pacific Ocean. Even our soils of calcareous shale and coarse sand were uplifted from the ancient seafloor and weathered into place over the millennia. Fossil Point pays tribute to this bond between sea and vine.
