It was a Merlot kind of evening so opened the 2016 Ceja Vineyards Sonoma County Carneros Merlot. Aromas of dark cherries, crushed cranberries with hints of cinnamon, sweet spice and a faint puff of oak.
The mouth is both lush and soft with blueberry, ripe cherry, dark berries followed by a splash of dark chocolate and toasted oak. The finish is juicy and long.
Don't miss your chance to purchase your own bottles today by clicking the buy wine link.

Rock solid Cabernet from your friends and Pedroncelli Winery. The 2018 priced at $22 (a steal for a cabernet of this quality) shows aromas featuring clusters of dark berries, dried herbs and earthy notes. The mouth is lush with cherry, plum, blackberry, a dusting of mocha and dried herbs and a long finish with just a hint of spice. Drink this wine now or lay it down for several years in the cellar. Don't miss an opportunity to add a few bottles for your sipping pleasure.
Paired with a filet mignon, rosemary potatoes and salad. Perfecto!
Cheers
Dan
