2016 Martin Cabernet Sauvignon: Mastery of Napa Valley Terroir for the Holidays

The 2016 Martin Cabernet Sauvignon is a distinguished expression of Napa Valley’s world-class winemaking tradition, sourced from the renowned Martin Vineyard. Showcasing the depth, power, and refinement that define exceptional Cabernet Sauvignon, this vintage offers a luxurious, age-worthy experience ideally suited for celebratory gatherings and elegant meals throughout the holiday season.

Deep garnet in color, the wine opens with an opulent bouquet of ripe blackberry, dark plum, and toasted spice, seamlessly woven with notes of cedar and graphite. On the palate, a rich tapestry of dark fruit unfolds, framed by velvety tannins and a polished, silky mouthfeel. Accents of dark chocolate, espresso, and a hint of vanilla from thoughtful oak aging add layers of complexity, culminating in a long, graceful finish that lingers beautifully.

The bold structure and refined elegance of the 2016 Martin Cabernet Sauvignon make it a natural companion for holiday cuisine and celebratory fare. Pair it with braised short ribs, prime rib, roasted lamb with rosemary and garlic, or beef tenderloin for special occasions. It also complements savory vegetarian dishes such as wild mushroom stroganoff or truffle-infused pasta. For relaxed holiday gatherings, enjoy it alongside an elevated cheese board featuring aged cheddar, Gouda, or blue cheese, accented with spiced nuts and fig preserves.

Whether poured at a festive table, shared during an intimate dinner, or opened to mark a special celebration, the 2016 Martin Cabernet Sauvignon delivers depth, elegance, and timeless sophistication—an unforgettable centerpiece for the holiday season.
