Tequila Meets Napa Cabernet
The Collaboration takes AsomBroso's most aged extra añejo and rests it in casks that once held Silver Oak's Napa Cabernet Sauvignon, imparting lush wine complexity — fruit sensation, butterscotch sweetness, mild oak and an extremely light smoke — over sweet agave. Few collaborations in spirits have bridged two worlds this literally. Explore the tequila collection and the full Asombroso portfolio at Del Mesa Liquor.
