What gives a cabernet sauvignon it's character?
I’m a bit dense on wines, even though I drink them occasionally. What gives a cabernet sauvignon it’s character? I favor merlot most of the time, but have no idea why. Are there any general characteristics of cabernet sauvignon wines that make them cabernet’s?
Cabernet sauvignon has a well defined aroma, typically the smells are violets, blackcurrant, cedar, and spice if the wine was produced in Europe.
The other thing is cabernet sauvignon is a type of grape, and if grown in California such as the Napa Valley area (as most cabernet in the US is grown there) the characteristics can be similar to those of the European grown grapes, but may be more overwhelmingly reminicent of oak, pepper, earth, ripe berries, and chocolate.
Last, if the grapes are grown in cooler areas with lower temperatures, cabernet sauvignon grapes have a more herbaceous character. Hope this helps (urp).
The fruit itself (i.e. the grape) is bolder with more intense character. There are different styles of cabs out there. The American oak will taste a lot different that a cab that was in french oak. Also some vintages are better than others within a particular region. When it comes to wine, everything is significant: form the level of brixs at the time of picking, the hours of cold soak, the barrel aging, the type of barrel (French, American oak, 100 new, etc.) used, to the style of the winemaker. Because of their general structure, they go well with juicy grilled meats. I hope this answered your question.
