A relatively
low-cost entry from
California's
Cenral Coast, and my
wife's selection to accompany our
Thanksgiving dinner. I would have chosen something
lighter, a
Pinot Noir perhaps, but as it turned out this was a pretty good choice. The
wine was relatively
straightforward, but with nice hints of
oak (it is a barrel-aged wine),
cherry, and something
reminiscent of
cloves. It is certainly not something for the
cellar, but if you need a cheap wine to go with a
beef dish, this would suffice.
