Caresus "CS"

» barrique - table red wine (*)

Variety

One of the oldest and the most popular varieties in the world. Extraordinary Herzegovina terroir and rare combination of micro climates gives special character to this international variety. Wines out of Cabernet Sauvignon are notorious for its dominant tannin, having excellent aging potential.

Geographical Origin, Soil and Climate

The HEPOK Vineyards, planted and nourished on fertile soil of Trebižat river valley, next to town of Ljubuski, are one of the best in Herzegovina. The region is very well known for excellent red wines, even since the Greek times.
The terroir of Ljubuski is determined by the mountains in the North and Adriatic Sea in the South. Being on the border between Continental and Mediterranean climate creates unique conditions for excellent red wines.

Production

The grapes are selected from the best locations, collected by hand and cooled in the vineyard, immediately after picking. Minimum of 20 days of temperature controlled fermentation in stainless steel fermenters, ripening in special made oak barriques, constant analyses and regular hygienic controls are the up to date standards we apply, but the key secrets for extraordinary wines hides within the great tradition and knowledge only HEPOK winemakers have.
