Richard Bruno Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignon 2015
About the wine
HUGE Cab for a HUGE value! Now...where's the steak?!
- Intensely ripe Cabernet, exploding with black cherries and black pepper. This wine is big and juicy in all the right places... a perfect balance of power, richness and flavor.
- Richard's worked with grapegrowers across Paso Robles for over 20 years, and had his eye on 4 vineyards from the region's most distinctive districts. He just needed Angel funding to buy the fruit!
- Bring it to the steakhouse, and ask for a sizzling medium rare. That unmistakable grill char, a side of crunchy fries, and this smooth red? Perfection.
Best before
If you like a big Cab then drink some now and save some for later. This wine will age well for 12 - 20+ years or more, but it really depends on what you like. If you like big tannins, big fruit and noticeable oak notes, then don't age it long. Cabs age elegantly, but you may prefer it with all the bells and whistles and generosity of the king of grape varietals now.
Serving advice
This wine should be decanted.
Food match
This is a great wine for steak and frites.
Contains sulphites
Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Richard Bruno
Years Angel-funded: 2013-2023
- Richard Bruno is exactly what we love in a winemaker– the quiet achiever behind the scenes at some of the world's most famous wine brands. He's made wine for Francis Ford Coppola and Don Sebastiani, the latter of which was named Winery of the Year TWICE under his watch.
- During his decades making wine for famous wineries and earning them 90+ scores, he has traveled all up and down California's coastal wine regions. His experience and familiarity with the terrain allow him to sniff out the best-bang-for-buck pretty much anywhere in the state.
- Launching one's wine brand is hard and expensive, so Richard is using Angel funding – and he's able to focus on winemaking, instead of selling wine.
