A special holiday dinner deserves a carefully selected wine. If your menu includes prime rib, a roast or even a buffet with cheeses and snacks, select this wonderful cabernet from California.
There are more than 77,000 acres of the king of red grapes planted in California, where the warm days and cool nights provide the ideal climate for ripening. This wine is fermented in different batches, where the combination of careful oak aging and blending helps balance the powerful tannins.
The result is a wine soft and lush, yet supported with firm structure that opens flavors of red berry fruit and spice.
Sherry: "Peppery cherry, black currant and strawberry." 3-1/2 stars
Chris: "Notes of fig with flavors of plum, raspberry and cherry with a hint of cocoa on the finish." 4 stars
Available locally for about $14.
Coming next week: Ruffino Prosecco
