From Paso Robles the heart of California's Central Coast, Paso Robles which see a longer growing season than Napa characterized by hot, sunny days and cool, clear nights. We sourced the fruit from across the Paso Robles AVA to embody the melange of fruit characteristics in the region. High desert with extremes from day to night gives us tannic structure and acidity. Vineyard huddled against the southern tip of the Santa Lucia Range give us plush, generous fruit with a classic herbal edge. The resulting blend is an exquisite wine with layers of complexity and nuanced flavors.

Drawing from 50 years of the Cakebread family's winemaking experience, and selecting grapes that reflect the unique personalities of their regions, Bezel crafts quality, fruit-forward wines to elevate your everyday wine drinking occasion. This is a classic, affable, easy-going wine with a refreshing finish.

Harvest Note
2022 was an early vintage which is indicative of the low yields we saw in the vineyard following a dry winter. This resulted in concentrated berries with high levels of tannin. A warm spell in late Agust/ early September was punctuated by unusual rainfall. Fortunately, Cabernet Sauvignon is so well suited to these conditions that the vines proceeded to ripen without incident, resulting in balanced wines with concentration and freshness.
Tasting Note
Aromas of blackberry, dried herbs and a hint of minerality lead to a plush flavors of ripe black and red fruits, and dark chocolate on the palate.
