2021 Sailor's Grave Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley California

The 2021 Sailor's Grave Cabernet Sauvignon is a classic Napa Valley Cabernet from Michael Pozzan Winery, crafted from 98% Cabernet Sauvignon and 2% Merlot. The wine opens with expressive aromas of red and black currant, graphite, and sweet pipe tobacco, followed by layered flavors of juicy blackberry, ripe Bing cherry, and freshly ground espresso. Nutmeg, clove, and vanilla emerge through the long finish, adding spice and depth to the wine's rich Napa Valley character.

Grown from premier vineyards in Napa Valley and aged for 18 months in French oak, the 2021 vintage combines ripe fruit with firm structure and polished texture. Its full-bodied profile and savory oak-driven complexity make it a natural match for grilled flank steak, roasted beef, lamb, charred onions, roasted potatoes, sautéed greens, and aged cheeses.
