Wine Details
Price:
$15.00 per bottle
Description:
Cabernet-Merlots have a nice balance of both worlds for red wine
drinkers. A nice plumy and black current characteristic on the nose
lets the slightly cedary spice offer an almost toasted vanilla texture
on the palate. Well incorporated tannins make this an enjoyable
wine for all your guests.

Varietal Definition
Sauvignon Blanc:
Sauvignon Blanc is widely grown in California — at over 15,000 acres, it’s now the third most planted variety — and often assumes the moniker ‘Fume Blanc’. This popular synonym, credited to Napa’s Robert Mondavi, derives from the grape’s historic home of Pouilly in France’s Upper Loire Valley, where Sauvignon Blanc is the dominant varietal and goes locally by the name of ‘Blanc Fumé’. When treated with respect and afforded suitable growing conditions, Sauvignon Blanc is one of the wine world’s darlings. Steely, racy acidity, green, gooseberry fruit, asparagus and a grassy, herbaceous character characterize dry wines made from this grape.
