Cabernet Sauvignon (also simply known as - cab sauv) is one of the most popular red wine grape varieties in the world that has its origin in France. Due to its popularity, sometimes it receives criticism as a colonizer for overshadowing some regions’ native grapes. It is believed Cabernet Sauvignon was a result of a crossbreed of red Cabernet Franc grape and a white Sauvignon Blanc grape that happened in the seventeenth century in southwestern France. The Cabernet Sauvignon grapes are small with thick skin, and it naturally yields low, bud, and ripen late. Cabernet Sauvignon grape is grown nearly in all main wine-producing countries. This is due to its adaptability to diverse climate conditions. It also does well in a variety of soil, making the soil consideration less of concern, especially for New World winemakers. Cab grapes are also resistant to most viticulture hazards such as rot and insects. Its ease of cultivation often contributes to its popularity.

Although Cabernet Sauvignon grapes can grow in a variety of climatic conditions, climate warming is an essential factor since it affects Cabernet Sauvignon's suitability to produce varietal wine or a blended wine. The climate affects how early the grapes will be harvested. In a cooler climate, it is difficult to get Cabernet Sauvignon grapes to ripen fully. In most California wine-growing regions, vineyards are exposed to enough sunshine with few problems, and grapes fruits are left to fully ripening, which increases the possibility of producing varietal Cabernet wine brands. In regions like Bordeaux, which are exposed to inclement harvest season weather threat, Cabernet Sauvignon is often harvested a bit earlier than ideal, and to fill the gaps, it is usually blended with other grapes.
