Cabernet Sauvignon is one of the most popular and recognizable red wine varieties in the world. Originating from the Bordeaux region of France, it is widely cultivated in California, Australia, Chile, and other winemaking regions. The wine is characterized by a deep ruby color and a rich flavor profile with notes of blackcurrant, blueberry, spices, and sometimes green pepper or eucalyptus. Tannins are typically pronounced, providing good structure and aging potential. Cabernet Sauvignon pairs excellently with red meat, cheeses, and dark chocolate. Due to its versatility and full-bodied nature, it’s a frequent choice for both everyday dinners and special occasions.
Today is International Cabernet Sauvignon Day, and we would like to share our recommendations for pairing this wine with your meal. Carlevana Winery produces a wide range of wines from this grape variety. But there are two gems: Black Raven and Port Mereni — pay attention to these wines and appreciate their bouquet. Especially since they are limited in quantity and will soon be sold out.
We invite you to visit our winery and take a wine tour to taste our wines, learn how we produce them, and experience the history of Moldovan winemaking.
