Description
Hess sources Lion Tamer from Napa Valley to create a pure representation of the winemaker’s craft and their ability to tame the unruly tannins of mountain fruit. Using Malbec to tame the powerful tannins, the nickname “Lion Tamer” is well suited for the balance brought by blending just a touch. Lion Tamer by Hess Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is a seamless and
smooth wine with mouthwatering tannins. The palate frames the rounded tannins with notes of blueberry, toasted oak, and a rich mocha flavor which lingers alongside hints of vanilla. For Pairing, the team at
CWS suggests roasted duck breast with pecan purée or beef tenderloin with blackberry dressing.
