NPR Planet Money Micro-Face Cabernet Sauvignon 2019

The team at NPR’s Planet Money went searching through thousands of public domain superheroes and fell in love with the 1940s sonic avenger, Micro-Face. He was everything a podcast could have hoped for: super-sensitive hearing, photoelectric vision and the kicker—a microphone strapped to his face. They’ve introduced a new version of Micro-Face that they can truly (and legally) call their own. All that was left? Finding the perfect sidekick.

That’s where we came in. This gorgeous Washington Cabernet Sauvignon hails from the Horse Heaven Hills, a premium enclave of the Columbia Valley. Barrel aged for six months, it has everything Washington Cab fans could hope for: expressive floral-spice aromas, ripe cassis and dark berry flavors plus structured, food-friendly tannins.

While it’s clearly the ideal sidekick for Micro-Face, this smooth Cab will also partner well with burgers, grilled veggies, hearty stews and more heroes of your dinner table. Or, be bold and enjoy a glass while digging into the world of licensing with your friends at Planet Money.

It’s a bird, it’s a plane, it’s...a fab Cab you simply can’t miss. Hit ‘Add to Cart’ now.
