    2017 Kita Cabernet Sauvignon (Santa Ynez Valley, CA) 8R

    8R

    Old World subtlety is replaced with a juicy New World palate. Real fullness begins here.

    2017 Kita Cabernet Sauvignon (Santa Ynez Valley, CA) 8R

    An intensely deep-colored wine with a beautiful nose of boysenberries, black currant. sweet tobacco and cedar that is complimented by hints of vanilla, dried sage, and red plums. The taste is rich in texture with complex flavors of red cherries, espresso, roasted bell peppers, eucalyptus, and dried herbs. The dynamic fruit flavors on the palate blend into the velvety yet defined tannins for a dynamic, lengthy finish. This wine is purely balanced with a fresh intensity that is a culmination of elegance and grace." - Tara Gomez

    About The Varietal

    Cabernet Sauvignon

    Frequently linked with Bordeaux wine blends and Napa Valley, Cabernet Sauvignon is a grape variety that has achieved global popularity. This is largely attributed to its coveted blend of black fruit scents, firm tannins, and vibrant acidity.

    About The Producer

    Kita

    Kita is the first wine brand owned by a Native American tribe headed by a Native American winemaker, Tara Gomez. Due to unfortunate economic conditions, Kita closed its doors for good this past April, leaving behind one last vintage. Founded in 2010 by descendants of the Chumash of Coastal California, Kita began producing high-quality wines in the Santa Ynez Valley, grown on the traditional land of the Chumash people.
