Pliny The Elder’s Recipe for Cabernet Sauvignon
- Capture a lion
- If you don’t have access to fresh lions, a salmon will do
- Is it getting warm in here
- Turn the salmlion into a grape using sheer willpower or magic
- Say, does that sound like lava pooling in the backyard
- Add bird hearts or something equally absurd
- Oh crap it was lava after all
2013 Tierra y Mar Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley 750ml 4-Pack
Napa Valley is known for many things; sprawling hills, friendly folks, great food and delectable wines. Tierra y Mar Cabernet Sauvignon is no exception. Bursting with flavor, this sensational wine fills the palate with hints of rhubarb and raspberry. Its subtle oak flavor and smooth finish make it the perfect wine to drink with a juicy slice of char-grilled steak or a butterflied leg of lamb.
Tierra y Mar translates to Earth and Sea, a nod to the special relationship between land and water. Tierra y Mar produces wines that are the ultimate expression of nature’s balance and harmony, allowing the wines to speak for themselves as they are the unique creation of the grape, soil, water and climate of where they are grown.
Vineyard: The Tierra y Mar wines are produced from vineyards situated in select parts of Napa Valley and Sonoma County. Soils are predominately gravelly silt loams with a heavy gravel layer. Loam soils generally contain more nutrients and moisture, which allows for better infiltration of water. Sonoma County, with miles of coastline and sun-kissed valleys, provides diversity within its growing regions.
2013 was a near perfect vintage for Napa Valley. This Cabernet Sauvignon is illustrative of the high-quality wines that the Napa Valley is famous for.
