Drink and Discuss: The Napa Cabernet

Wine store Knoxville
The Napa Cabernet is about uniqueness & balance
Everyday thousands of cabernet sauvignon bottles are sold nationwide at wine stores like ours, Campbell Station Wine & Spirits. The Napa Cabernet is one of the most popular ones. According to the Napa Valley Vintners Association, Napa contributed more than $50 billion to the U.S. economy. That is a lot for a small region which produces 4% of the state of California’s grape harvest.

So we've inquired a bit about what the Napa Cabernet is. The Napa Cabernet itself was inspired by great Bordeaux wines. The pioneers of the style wanted to make red wines that could stand with the greatest reds in the world. For them, that meant Bordeaux. But the Napa Cabernet is even more unique!

According to Silverado Winery whose wines are exclusively featured in-store this week, "what makes a "classic" Napa Cabernet is balance: richness vs. tannins, ripe fruit vs. dried herb aromatics, ageability vs. instant gratification."

"It has to be delicious; great grapes deserve craftsmanship; wine is more interesting when it reflects its origin”, they continue.

What is more is that the Napa Cabernet is meant to go with food. This cannot be easily said for most wines. It's not for no reason that the Napa Cabernet has become the official wine of American steakhouses.

We recommend Silverado Winery Napa Cabernet 2011It is available in-store at 707 North Campbell Station Road, Farragut, TN 37934.

Happy drinking!
