Niebaum-Pennino 1882 Cabernet Sauvignon 2020
Vintage Character
2020 was a difficult and traumatic growing season across California, shaped by heat, smoke and wildfires. Many producers made little or no wine from affected lots, so the quantities that were bottled were often small. Where fruit was clean, the wines can be of high quality, but critics advise drinking rather than keeping them very long. In 2020, the 1882 Cabernet Sauvignon from Niebaum-Pennino reflects that season. This is a Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon from the Niebaum-Pennino label.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing
Blackcurrant, blackberry and plum lead, with cedar, cocoa and graphite. It is dry, full-bodied, with medium-high acidity and high tannins. The palate is full-bodied and dry, with medium-high acidity and ripe, firm tannins. With age it can develop tobacco, leather and forest floor. Roast lamb, braised beef short rib and char siu suit its structure. Serve at about 16 to 18 degrees Celsius in a wide glass, and decant a young bottle for a short time if you like. Cabernet Sauvignon gives structure, dark fruit and firm tannins, which is why it is often blended with softer varieties. Firm cheeses such as Comté also work, as do soy-braised dishes that are not too sweet. A wine of this weight rewards a few minutes in the glass, when the fruit settles and the spice and savoury notes come forward.
Winery Background
Niebaum-Pennino is a label from the family of film director Francis Ford Coppola. The Pennino name comes from Coppola's mother's family, who were musicians from Naples, and Coppola has said that the wine company began as The Family Coppola. The label reflects the family's Italian roots, and Philippe Bascaules is listed as winemaker. Francis Ford Coppola has described the family's musical background as the source of the Pennino name.
