1924 Double Black Bourbon Barrel Aged Cabernet Sauvignon

The year was 1924. It was the heart of the Prohibition Era and wine’s darkest hour when it was outlawed and deemed unconstitutional. It was also the year the Delicato family first planted vineyards in California and farmed grapes that were sold to friends and neighbors.

During an era of gangsters and speakeasies, Americans would not be denied their favorite beverages. Daring drinkers sipped wine on the sly and found
a loophole allowing doctors to prescribe Bourbon. In honor of that bold time, two once-forbidden favorites come together to inspire this 1924 Bourbon Barrel-aged Cabernet Sauvignon.
