This week we are pleased to offer another wine from Paso Robles pioneer Eberle Vineyards, this time showcasing their flagship Cabernet Sauvignon, sourced from 30 year old vines from the Eberle Estate Vineyard.  Paso can be a great source for less expensive Cabernet, and while the Paso heat can sometimes result in an over the top wine, the cooler 2006 combined with Gary Eberle’s light touch in winemaking resulted in a wine that while very rich, is also beautifully balanced.

Deep garnet in color, the 2006 Eberle Estate Cabernet Sauvignon has powerful aromas of black currant, cherry, pomegranate, plum, baking spice and a hint of vanilla.  The palate shows earthy notes more common in cooler climate Cab, along with plenty of cherry and berry fruit, and a touch of cocoa.  While intensely flavored, this wine is actually medium bodied, with good acidity and a certain rusticity more typical of an Old World wine, allowing it to pair gracefully with food.

While we are often able to find great deals on Cabernet from Napa and Sonoma, it is areas like Paso Robles that are able to consistently deliver high quality wines at reasonable prices.  This Eberle Cabernet is a great example of a wine that over delivers on quality and intensity, and at under $30 is an incredible bargain.  Stock up now, and take some on a picnic with cheese and cured meat, or save it for the winter and serve it with grilled steak.
