2013 Black Fox Cabernet Sauvignon
Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
California’s Cabernet are about as popular worldwide as Bordeaux’s and the 2013 Black Fox Cabernet is a perfect example of why. This cedar accented dark berry wine goes down nice and easy, with a raspberry punch and a cherry kicker to underscore the cassis taste. This is a delightfully fruity wine that’s everything we love about Cabernet Sauvignon. Our experts were unanimous on the 2013 Black Fox. “A classic,” said one as he poured his second glass, “just what you expect from a California Cab.” Another expert was especially keen on the wine’s scent saying, “It smells just like walking through a farmer’s market on a nice, breezy day. So much calming fruit flavors.” This was one of their favorite Cabs from 2013 and they highly suggest snatching up as much as you can right now!
Food Pairing Notes
Try this classic California Cabernet with a succulent roast or grilled meat dish with a sweet sauce. Try it with this delicious short rib recipe: http://www.foodandwine.com/recipes/easy-short-ribs-braised-in-red-wine.
2012 Geja’s Big Bold Red

The Geja’s Big Bold Red is a feisty, impudent red with prominent, aggressive tannins that are fresh and forward. This is one wine you can enjoy every day of the week at a price that’s hard to beat.
