Commemorative US Sailing Release

2022 Cabernet Sauvignon

As the esteemed official wine sponsor of US Sailing, Sextant Wines is honored to pay tribute to each athlete who represented the United States in Marseille, France. This commemorative bottle, with a label design that gracefully weaves each athlete's name in vibrant, flowing waves, is a celebration of their achievements. The interplay of colors and shapes evokes a scene of sails gliding across the water during a race, symbolizing the unity and the shared commitment of sailors worldwide. Crafted with pride, this limited special release is a tribute to our athletes and the enduring spirit of competitive sailing.

A confident swirl of the glass unveils a vibrant plum hue, with aromas of raspberry, fresh strawberry, and ripe apricot. Initial layers of earth open the palate with hints of potpourri, slate, and cinnamon. A bright, cranberry-like acidity awakens the senses, transitioning to a juicy elegance at mid-palate. Flavors of milk chocolate and black currants linger through a smooth finish, capturing the classic essence of Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignon.

Winemaker Notes
The Sextant 2022 US Sailing Cabernet Sauvignon came from three of the most prized sub-AVA's of Paso Robles: Templeton Gap, El Pomar, and Geneseo. Small clusters and berries help create a wine rich in color and flavor. After fermenting on skins for two weeks, we age this wine in French oak. This year's Cabernet Sauvignon should be poised, elegant and ready to enjoy now!
