- Merf Cabernet Sauvignon, Columbia Valley, WA, USA 2015 $18
- So good, we had to bring it back for the second time this week! David Merfield's personal label, (who is also the winemaker for Northstar Vineyard), he wants nothing more than to showcase Washington State wines and all they have to offer! This Cabernet style has lighter tannin and juicy bing cherries with a light, milk chocolate finish. Perfect wine for Cabernet drinkers to enjoy in the warm summer months.
- Scout's Honor Napa Valley Red Blend, Venge Vineyards, Calistoga, CA 2016 $44
- A hearty mix of Zinfandel (68%), Charbono (16%), Petit Sirah (10%) and Syrah (6%) comprise this pleasantly dark and fruit forward blend. Unpretentious and ready to enjoy immediately or, correctly cellared, this wine will lay for another 10 years. A terrific big red to bring to a barbeque, it will go very well with grilled or smoked red meats.
We look forward to seeing you there!!
