Octopoda Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

Pairs with: Flank steak and chimichurri Good for: Enjoying a Napa Cab without breaking the bank Grape: Cabernet Sauvignon I am from: Napa Valley, California The story: Octopoda is a project of winemaker Trevor Sheehan, under the umbrella of Precision Wine Company. Each of his labels presents a distinguished and diverse collection of wines, made with meticulous attention to detail and a commitment to quality; from harvesting the grapes in the vineyards to designing original packaging. Why you’ll love me: This broad, spicy wine offers ample oak accents over notes of dark plums and blueberries, while fine-grained tannins firm up the mouthfeel just enough. Cinnamon, cedar and cloves all contribute to the welcoming aromas and flavors.
