2018 | Pius | Cabernet Sauvignon

Introduction

Red Wine: 2018 | Pius | Cabernet Sauvignon

Very dark in the glass, this showers the nose with complex aromas of dark cocoa, black olive, peppercorn, tar, espresso and mint. There’s a creamy and focused cassis kick to the sip, but it’s the slightly bitter coffee and charred earth aspects that are most compelling.

Producer Information

Pius is a young estate dedicated to small production, terroir-driven wines from the finest of Paso Robles locations. The estate is the brainchild of Anthony Versochi, one of the top winemakers at Daou, under Danny Daou himself. Pius is a Latin word with no direct translation into English. In ancient Rome, pius signified a pact or alliance with the gods. It could refer to a leader who created a relationship with the divine for the purpose of divine intervention. Pius became synonymous with virtue or worthiness, honor, dedication, duty, and with sacrifice for a noble purpose.”At PIUS, we are inspired by two core principles: Craft and Sacrifice. We come back to these values over and over again.The greatest wines have always come from sacrifice. Life fire in the darkness, creation transforms but for every prize there is a cost. The truest sacrifice comes from live and transforms the fear of failure.”
