REGION: NAPA VALLEY, NORTH COAST, CALIFORNIA
GRAPE(S): CABERNET SAUVIGNON
WINEMAKER: STEVE MATTHIASSON
DRINKS BEST: NOW - 5 YEARS

Steve Matthiasson, nominated for a prestigious James Beard, believes that winemaking is a ‘natural extension of farming.’ He and his family own and work on seven vineyards in Napa Valley and Sonoma using site-specific methods of farming to develop intense fruits. Careful restraint is practiced in the cellar to produce classic expressions of well-known varietals, as well as a few rarer ones. His Cab is full bodied, loaded with black cherry and ripe red currant, and shows baking spices and pepper on the palate with a touch of oak. It is a more fruit driven wine, but does not lack the structure and tannins sought after in balanced Cabernets.

PAIRING: GRILLED CHICKEN THIGHS WITH DRIED FIG AND PORT WINE SAUCE
