Calvet Cabernet Sauvignon 750ml

Calvet has been a name in Bordeaux since 1818, and the house style shows in this wine. French Cabernet tends to be leaner and more savoury than its Australian or Chilean counterparts — less upfront ripe fruit, more earth, herb and structure.

That is a matter of preference rather than quality. If you find New World reds too sweet or too forward, this is the direction to move in. It asks for food, and rewards it.

Serving Suggestions:

Did You Know?
📖 The house of Calvet was founded in 1818 and became one of the best-known négociant names in Bordeaux — buying, blending and bottling wine rather than owning every vineyard, a model that shaped the French wine trade for two centuries.

🌟 Final Note: Classic, restrained French Cabernet. Put it on the table with a roast and it makes sense immediately.
