Cheap Wines
by tammy on June 28, 2006
Normally priced at $6.99 (though I've seen it on line for as much as $7.99), it was on sale for $5.99
There's been a lot of talk in the wine world about "monster" type wines that have a high alcohol content. So, at 13.9% this is not a monster. In fact, it was a delicious change of pace from the usual monster wines I drink (and admit to enjoying as well).
Here are some wine notes from the Don and Sons Company website:
Winemaker's Comments
Dark ruby color with a nose full of raspberries, cedar, and subtle savory herbs. After the inviting nose entices you to take a sip, you will experience the flavors of rich blackberry cobbler, fresh raspberry jam, and caramel oak tones with integrated hints of basil and fresh figs.
Serving Suggestions
For an appetizer, enjoy blue cheese stuffed fresh figs or imported black olives. A flatiron steak or a venison loin stuffed with shitake and oyster mushrooms would be great. However, during the work week, a great burger and steak fries would do the trick
