2019 Liberty School Cabernet Sauvignon

Hope Family Wines

Paso Robles - California

This storied wine has been a staple on dinner tables for more than 40 years. With a beautiful deep ruby hue and brackish edge, aromas of fresh vanilla, cedar and black currants fill the glass. On the palate, a touch of wet leather, black pepper, savoury herbs, black cherry and sweet oak are framed by approachable silky tannins making this wine very food friendly.


Viticulture

To craft Liberty School Cabernet Sauvignon, we work closely with over fifty family farmers whose sole goal is to grow grapes of superior quality. In the Paso Robles region, Cabernet Sauvignon is known for its ripe fruit flavours and supple tannins. The diversity of microclimates throughout the various vineyards contributes to excellent depth and complex flavours in the glass.


Vinification

This Cabernet Sauvignon is harvested and fermented individually by vineyard lots and then barrelled into a combination of French and American oak barrels, 10% of which are new. The wine is racked twice during barrel-aging and gently filtered just prior to bottling. The 2019 Liberty School Cabernet was aged for 15 months in oak, blended in winter of 2021 and bottled in early spring of 2021.
