Old River Road Cabernet Sauvignon comes from Ponderosa Vineyards in the Sierra Foothills of Nevada County, California. A sustainable farm, this vintner uses organic grapes to make this unique wine.


This Cabernet Sauvignon pours a bold brick red. Waves of dark berries, oak, vanilla, and smoke fill the nostrils as the each sip is taken. Then, as the wine flows across one's taste buds, its mild tannins and slight acidity take over.


Give this wine a try the next time you have steak or lamb chops.
