The Atom, named for the building block of our existence because of its infinite potential, is a labor of love from Plymouth Wine Company founder Jason Trulby, who for over twenty years has been working with select growers and craftsmen throughout California to create rich, bold, delicious California wines that over-deliver in terms of value. Working with Napa Valley winemaker Brian Nuss, maker of Twenty Rows Cabernet, he set out to create a cabernet that would realize the varietal's full potential and absolutely smash the price-to-quality ratio. Smash it, it does!
The Atom California Cabernet Sauvignon - truly one of nature's greatest unsolved wine mysteries. We harvest clusters at ideal ripeness & combine them at the press before a slow, meticulous fermentation. On the nose, dark blackberry and cherry jamminess with a hint of leather. On the palate, we find lush and dark berry fruit, with notes of oak and black pepper. Balanced acidity & integrated tannins linger over a soft finish.

This wine is rich, with aromas of blackberry, black licorice, dried herbs and potpourri on the nose. On the palate, flavors of black raspberry and boysenberry glide into pink grapefruit zest, sarsaparilla and bittersweet chocolate, finishing with silky tannins. Decant and enjoy with grilled meats.
