Plus, we’ll talk about why your Cabernet Sauvignon may have some secrets behind the label, and how its related to another sauvignon: Sauvignon Blanc.

Cabernet Sauvignon & Sauvignon Blanc - All About The Grapes from Napa & Beyond
Cabernet Sauvignon: New world cabernet tends to be big, bold, dark wines. Think cassis, currant, black cherry, and blackberry fruit flavors. Oak aging, which it often has, tends to give it cigar box spice and vanilla notes, and time usually adds flavors like leather and earthiness. Because the wines have a high amount of TANNIN (watch the episodes “NERD LAB”) the wines can age very well, and pair very well with fatty foods.
Sauvignon Blanc: Just like Cabernet Sauvignon, Sauvignon Blanc is grown and loved by many winemakers and regions. Like American politics, it takes different forms depending on where its from, but it almost always has a HUGE amount of acidity, which is great for food pairing. Also, you can usually count on green being a factor; grass, lime, gooseberry, jalapeño, green apple. But flowers, other citrus, stone fruits, and even mango or passion fruit can come into play too: it just depends where its from!

Pinot Noir and Chardonnay - All About These Cool Climate Wine Grapes
Pinot Noir and Chardonnay are frequently grown together, as they both like the same type of climate! While Pinot Noir is difficult to grow, it can be as beautiful and elegant and silky as a wedding dress. And simultaneously, as manly as a lumberjack: earthy, meaty, and firm. It’s the ultimate you-name-it grape; it can display anything. It’s why it’s such a cult favorite amongst winos. As far a flavors, think red fruits (cranberry, cherry, raspberry) earth (mushroom, truffle, and dirt) and maybe spice (cured meats, baking spice). Chardonnay is one of the most versatile grapes on the planet. When the wine is balanced, you get a tad bit of everything, and that’s the goal: a complex Chardonnay. Little butter, little oak, little fruit, little acid, little mineral. Flavors are all over the map, depending on where on the map the wine is from, but yellow flavors are a good bet. Yellow apple, yellow pear, pineapple, mango, vanilla, butter.

There’s no region more iconic in the American wine scene than the Napa Valley. Napa is credited with giving American wine the street cred it needed to hang with the France and Italy’s of the world. It has an allure and prestige surrounding it that screams luxury. Consequently, the price of land is through the roof. Wineries who own it tend to be split into 2 camps: wineries who bought their land when it was cheap, and are now mega producers (think Mondavi) or new money from tech or celebrity, making wine as passion projects. Nothing wrong with either, but in order to find wines that have some value and craft to them, you gotta dig a little deeper.

Watch this clip from our Napa Valley episode, where we talk a little about the climate, location, and history of Napa, California.
The Napa Valley is the quintessential American wine region. Napa helped the USA gain the recognition it deserved in the wine world, and to this day, still brings the thunder. It's the wine region everyone knows and loves; but do you know the story of how it came to be? Find out on this premiere episode of V is for Vino. Plus, we’ll talk about why your Cabernet Sauvignon may have some secrets behind the label, and how its related to another sauvignon: Sauvignon Blanc. Winemaker Sarah of Elizabeth Spencer wines takes us behind the scenes of the winemaking process, and we learn about that mysterious wine compound “tannin” in today’s Nerd Lab. Finally, chef Sean O’Toole walks us through a Mediterranean tomato salad and dry aged New York strip unlike any other. Welcome to V is for Vino. Lets Watch, Learn, and Drink.

Cooking Mediterranean Tomato Salad & Pan-Seared NY Strip Steak at TORC Restaurant in Napa CA
Chef Sean started with a Mediterranean tomato salad, as visually stunning as it was delectable. And then, the steak; it changed the way I see NY Strip. Forget steak here, potato here, vegetable here. The dish is a complete work, each flavor complementing each other, as well as the wine. You do you, Chef Sean.
TORC is whatever Chef and owner Sean O’Toole wants it to be. He plays the music he wants. He cooks the style of food he wants on any given dish. He uses the ingredients that come to him, not the ingredients that happen to be popular right now. He worked hard to open his own spot, and he wants to live or die by his own sword, which is something I totally respect. He calls it “contemporary Californian”. I call it delicious.
