Yian Lu Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignon 2018
About the wine
Yian's top-rated Paso Cab returns!
- This powerful, punchy red is loaded with bold, luscious black cherries and a delicate touch of oaky spice from careful aging in French oak.
- Rich, potent Paso Cabs like this one are exactly why Yian decided to become a winemaker. She loves making them as much as Angels love drinking them. And with your funding, she can bring you the best of the best from Paso's top vineyards for yet another dazzling vintage of this delectable red.
- Yian gives 110% when making her wines, and then some – that’s why Angels are already lined up to nab this return vintage of her crowd-favorite Cabernet. Grab a bottle (or two) before they’re all gone!
Best before
Enjoy it now, or age it over the next 5 years.
Serving advice
I strongly recommend storing in a cool area for at least 2 weeks after receiving the wine to let it rest after shipment. Decant for 60 minutes and serve at room temperature!
Food match
Meats (barbecue ribs, steaks, beef burgers), freshly baked wood-fired pizzas, cheese (aged Gouda, blue cheese, cheddar cheese), veggies (sautéed mushrooms, eggplant, black beans, caramelized onions, stuffed peppers) are all wonderful pairings with this red.
Contains sulphites
Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Yian Lu
Yian says it was a series of lucky strikes that got her into wine. But luck aside, it’s talent and drive that got this powerhouse the spotlight in California's Central Coast. And Angels like YOU, of course!
Working with her mentor (and fellow Angel-funded winemaker) Sharon Weeks, Yian's the Assistant Winemaker for a beautiful winery outside of Paso Robles. And now with your support, she has the freedom to make her own Paso reds, whites, and Rosés – they're her first-ever!
Born and raised in Taipei, Yian is proud to represent her Taiwanese heritage in her wines for Angels – and show off her own personal style. "Ten years ago, I never would have imagined that this was my life,” Yian said, smiling wide. “But thanks to Angels, I’m living my dream.”
