Mano's Sacramento Cabernet Sauvignon is a full-bodied California red wine from the Sierra Foothills region, located 40 miles east of Sacramento in the western foothills of the Sierra Nevada mountains. This wine is crafted from Cabernet Sauvignon grapes grown in the Sierra Foothills AVA, an appellation federally recognized in 1987 that encompasses vineyard elevations between 1,500 and 3,000 feet above sea level. The region is particularly known for producing Cabernet Sauvignon wines on rocky, volcanic soils similar to Napa's hillside versions but at a fraction of the cost.

Mano's wines are known for their handcrafted quality and smooth, silky finish. Their Cabernet Sauvignon offerings typically feature soft tannins, ripe cassis, chocolate and berry flavors, with some varieties aged for 15 months in a combination of French and American Oak. The wine has 13.5% ABV and is described by customers as absolutely full-bodied and smooth with a silky finish. Mano's Wine specializes in creating custom-etched and screen-printed wine bottles, transforming each into a unique piece of art, though this Costco offering comes in standard 750ml bottles sold in 6-packs.

The Sierra Foothills region has a rich winemaking history dating back to the California Gold Rush era. Cabernet Sauvignon is the second most planted variety in the Sierra Foothills AVA, with 600 acres under cultivation, and the El Dorado County sub-AVA within the region is particularly renowned for its Cabernet Sauvignons and Zinfandels.
