Juicy purple plums and blueberry flavours in the supple, full-bodied Californian Cabernet from Paso Robles. The winery founder, Terry Wheatley, survived breast cancer and has, through wine sales, donated more than $26 million for cancer research. The 2017 vintage of the robust Trail Boss Cabernet is perfect for barbecued hamburgers and meats.
