Paso Creek Cabernet Sauvignon comes from Paso Robles, one of the warmest, driest and most rugged growing regions in California. This sun-baked climate is tempered by strong afternoon winds which allow the vineyards to produce intense, dark and luscious fruit. The 350-acre Paso Creek vineyard produces particularly small berries which make for very concentrated wine. Blackberries, black cherries and cassis dominate this wine, but 15 months of aging in both French and American oak barrels give it a cedary, leathery finish that balances with the fruit perfectly. Blue cheese has a rugged nature of its own. Powerful and salty, blue cheese needs to be paired with a wine that has ripe fruit concentration and enough attitude to stand up for itself. This is not a subtle wine and cheese pairing. The intensity of blue cheese and the richness of the Paso Creek Cabernet will create an experience both delicious and captivating. You will definitely come back to this one!
