Di Costanzo DI CO Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley 2021

Description

First founded in 2010, Di Costanzo is the personal project of both Massimo di Costanzo and his wife Erin, where their small estate focuses on small single vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon. Massimo serving as chief winemaker holds an impressive resume having previously worked at prestigious wineries such as Screaming Eagle, Tignanello, Ovid, and Melka. The Di Co Cabernet Sauvignon serves as the entry-level into their fascinating line-up, sourced from mature, and well regarded vineyards across Napa Valley. Crafted using native yeast fermentations and limited use of new oak ( Often capped at 50% New) instead choosing show the quality of fruit and the site specific characteristics. Di Co shows dark berries, cassis, plums layered with graphite and minerality with slight herbal lift in the form of thyme and rosemary. Polished and fine-grained tannins give this wine a wonderful potential to sit and age gracefully, but also approachable now in its youth. Food pairings: fatty meats such as ribeye, lamb chops, or mushroom dishes, particularly creamy ones.
