Cabernet Sauvignon

Cabernet Sauvignon is native to the southern regions of France and most closely associated with the red wines of Bordeaux, where it plays the leading role on the Left Bank of the Gironde.

But of course it's now grown absolutely everywhere, and along with the likes of Merlot, Chardonnay or Sauvignon Blanc it is one of the pre-eminent international grape varieties that we would refer to as the 'grey squirrels'. So why have it here? Because there are still winegrowers in France and other pockets of the world who know how to make this ubiquitous grape sing and yet still express the terroir, and they're not going to charge an arm and a leg for it.
