6 Perfect Pairings for Three Signature Cabana Wines
RISK 2024 Sauvignon Blanc
RISK 2024 Sauvignon Blanc Lodi
This wine is bright with aromas of citrus blossom, stone fruit and lemon zest. The midpalate has flavors of cucumber, lime zest and papaya wrapped around minerality, dried herbs and long mouthwatering finish. Pair with fresh Oysters.
Lodi’s sun-kissed days and cooling Delta breezes ripen Sauvignon Blanc to a juicy core of citrus blossom, stone fruit, and lemon zest, while a faint cucumber snap keeps the finish laser-clean.
Pairing one – Asparagus & Goat-Cheese Flatbread. The variety’s green notes meld seamlessly with grilled asparagus, and its brisk acidity slices through creamy chèvre to refresh every bite.
Pairing two – Baja-Style Ceviche Tostadas. Lime-cured white fish mirrors the wine’s citrus thrust; herbaceous hints echo cilantro, and Sauvignon Blanc’s crisp finish cools a touch of chili heat.
Pinot Noir 2022, Lodi
Pinot Noir 2022, Lodi
Aged in French oak, a soft gentle wine with lots of flavor, with hint of cedar blackberries.
89 Pts Wine Enthusiast
Aged in French oak, this graceful Pinot layers ripe blackberry, gentle cedar spice, and silky tannins that make you reach for a second glass before the first is down.
Pairing one – Wild-Mushroom Risotto. Earthy porcini and sautéed creminis amplify Pinot’s forest-floor nuances, while bright cherry lift keeps the butter-rich Arborio from feeling heavy.
Pairing two – Cedar-Plank Salmon. Grilling salmon on a cedar board infuses the fish with the same woodsy note echoed by the wine’s barrel spice; lively acidity then whisks away the filet’s natural oils.
Rosé of Grenache 2021
Rosé of Grenache 2021, Lodi
A semi dry style of Rose, hint fresh raspberries, just a touch of sweetness on the finish. Perfect with any meal. 92 Points AWS
Cabana’s semi-dry Rosé shimmers with fresh raspberry and a whisper of rose petal, finishing bright and mineral—summer in a glass at just 11 – 12 % alcohol.
Pairing one – Watermelon–Feta Salad with Mint. Juicy melon syncs with the wine’s berry notes, while its crisp backbone highlights feta’s salty tang for a sweet-savory contrast that screams patio season.
Pairing two – Spicy Ahi Poke. Chilled Rosé softens ginger-wasabi heat, and its berry perfume accentuates sesame and soy aromatics without overpowering delicate tuna.
