BREA Wine Co. Cabernet Sauvignon, Margarita Vineyard, Paso Robles, California 2023
BREA's eighth vintage of Cabernet from Margarita Vineyard, the southernmost vineyard in Paso Robles and the only one in the Santa Margarita Ranch AVA. At 1,000 feet and 15 miles from the Pacific, its long, cool season makes a less oaked, more moderate-alcohol Cabernet than California usually offers: delicate, with gentle tannins and a mineral core from the vineyard's uplifted seabed soils.
Tasting Notes
"Expect a delicate, mineral California Cabernet: dark fruit with gentle tannins from small berries in the background and balanced, lively acidity." — Harvest Wine Shop

About BREA Wine Co.
OUR STORY
Chris Brockway, a noted California natural winemaker and owner of Broc Cellars, and Tim Elenteny, the libations logistics leader of Elenteny Imports, are the masterminds behind BREA Wine Company.
They have seen the thirst for site-specific, terroir driven, and sustainably farmed wine become the driving force for many avant-garde California winemakers who gravitate toward varieties that flow outside the mainstream. BREA Wine Company seeks to capture this thirst while also bringing the beloved classic varietals such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, and Pinot Noir into the fold.
The two seek to create wine that is beyond reproach by fostering close relationships with farmers and choosing vineyards known for their high- quality grapes. BREA wines are accessible in price, quality, and ready-to-drink but also suitable for short-term aging. Their goal is to open minds back up to these classic varietals. BREA Wines has become a beloved name in wine over the years and one you'll be proud to have on your shelves!
