2022 Earthquake Cabernet Sauvignon By Michael David Winery, Lodi California

The 2022 Earthquake Cabernet Sauvignon is a bold and full-bodied expression of Lodi from Michael David Winery, crafted to showcase the region's ability to produce intensely ripe and concentrated wines. The Earthquake name reflects the powerful character of the wine, with rich fruit, depth, and a larger-than-life style that has become a signature of this iconic Lodi producer.

Deep ruby in color, the 2022 opens with inviting aromas of raspberry creme brulee, cedar, and sweet oak. The palate is generous and intensely flavored, revealing layers of wild huckleberry, ripe cherry, and dark fruit, followed by subtle spice and an oak-inspired finish. Powerful yet smooth, its concentrated fruit is balanced by structure and a long, satisfying finish. A bold and approachable California Cabernet, it pairs beautifully with grilled steak, smoked meats, barbecue, hearty pasta dishes, and aged cheeses.
