This wine is a great casual drink especially after some much needed aeration. But also as a Private Chef this wine was a perfect addition to the sauce of the Short Ribs I made for a client last weekend. It gave incredible balance to the tomato paste and melded wonderfully with the thyme and rosemary which wasn’t a surprise due to the vanilla. What made it so great is that fact that it didn’t lose it Cab presence in a sauce that typically can drown out most medium bodied Cabs. Definitely a new fav!

Barrel Heist Wines, Bourbon Barrel Aged, Lodi California, Cabernet Sauvignon.
Not much bourbon taste. Light for a Cab. Probably wouldn’t buy again.
