JORDAN Cabernet Sauvignon
Alexander Valley
Retail: $59 ABV 13.8%
A perfect wine to enjoy before, during or after your Turkey feast. You may prefer to defer to a Zin to accompany the main course, but this high-end Cabernet is tough to match in pleasing the palate.
WINERY Tasting Notes
Cherry, raspberry and dried herb aromas laced with hints of vanilla and tobacco. The palate has a charming weight and velvety texture filled with intense flavors of black cherries and blackberries, all elevated by a lovely backbone of spice notes from extended aging in French oak barrels. Blackberries and hints of dried herbs linger through the long, spice-kissed finish.

Fans of the dark meat will love this wine to accompany their meal. It also makes a nice after dinner wine to go along with a chocolate dessert.

A full-bodied wine with a dense core of fresh raspberry and cranberry fruit intertwined with a peppery spice. Soft tannins and moderate acidity nicely balance the robust fruit and cedar spice flavors in this food-friendly wine.
La Crema Chardonnay
Sonoma Coast

White meat equals white wine, at least that is what we have been told. If your finances are still tight coming out of the covid shutdown, then consider this mid-priced wine. The high-end retail price point is the 2019 vintage.
WINERY Tasting Notes
Aromas of Meyer lemon, GALA APPLE, and Jasmine are followed by flavors of PEAR, Cara Cara orange, and lemon meringue pie. On the palate, the wine is CONCENTRATED and juicy with a lingering finish.
