While not the world’s most planted grape variety, Cabernet Sauvignon is arguably the planet’s most recognized red wine grape. Its popularity could be attributed to its links to the famous wine growing regions of Bordeaux and Napa Valley, or just to the viticultural fact that it is grown pretty much wherever wine grapes are grown. While some may view Cabernet Sauvignon as common due to its popularity, we believe there’s more to this potentially exalting and noble grape variety. Take the Varietal Voyage which includes 3 award winning wines and detailed varietal and wine information.
- Pierce Ranch Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon
- Viña Los Vascos Cabernet Sauvignon (Chile)
- Man Vintners Cabernet Sauvignon (South Africa)

If Grenache were a person, it would be a pretty girl’s “very-nice-but-plain” best friend. This provocative quote is an accurate illustration of the traditional perception of Grenache. Some other widely-held beliefs are that finding a varietal wine produced with Grenache in the States of any quality is impossible and that it’s only a blending varietal. All erroneous! Grenache is undergoing a remarkable makeover these days and may just be the next big trend in the wine world. We’ve swirled the glass, now let’s dive in and do some tasting! This Varietal Voyage packs includes 3 award winning Grenache wines and detailed varietal and wine information.
- Hammond Vineyards Grenache (USA)
- Saint Cosme Grenache (France)
- Valcántara Grenache (Spain)
