The story

The story behind Crush

Crush is not a winery, it is the word for harvest. Every Cabernet on earth begins at the crush, when August to October grapes meet the de-stemmer and the skins stay in contact with the juice to pull color and structure. The cap of skins rises during fermentation and gets punched down or pumped over for extraction, then the wine rests 10 to 17 months in French and American oak for vanilla and mocha.

We have sold Crush Cabernet Sauvignon for years as the bottle that does not ask anything of you. It is the harvest, in a glass, at $14.99.

Buying guidance

Which Crush is right for you?

Crush Cabernet Sauvignon 750mL is $14.99, and that is the whole story. No tiers, no reserve bottling, no upsell. At that number you can keep a bottle open for Tuesday pasta and not think about it, which is the point of a house Cabernet. The Pinot Grigio and Rose sit at $14.99 too, so a mixed three bottle run stays under $45. Buy Crush Cabernet online and we will have it ready at the counter, or send it out on a local route.

Good to know

Crush questions, answered

What is Crush Cabernet?
Crush Cabernet is an easy-drinking Cabernet Sauvignon sold under the Crush label, a commercial wine built for approachable fruit and soft tannins. The name nods to the crush, the harvest step where grapes are de-stemmed and fermented on their skins.
What does Crush Cabernet taste like?
It tastes of dark fruit with oak-driven vanilla and mocha, rounded tannins and a finish that does not grip. Skin contact during fermentation supplies the color and structure, and barrel aging softens the edges.
How should I serve Crush Cabernet?
Serve it slightly below room temperature, around 60 to 65 degrees, in a wide glass so the fruit opens. Pair it with burgers, tomato sauce or aged cheddar. A light chill works in summer.
Can I get Crush Cabernet delivered or pick it up?
Yes. We offer same-day or next-day delivery across Nassau and Suffolk, free local delivery over $250, and free curbside pickup at our Commack store. Order online and we will have it ready.
Is Crush Cabernet sweet?
No. Crush Cabernet Sauvignon is a dry red wine, fermented to dryness with no meaningful residual sugar. Any sweetness you notice comes from ripe fruit and oak vanilla, not from sugar in the bottle.
