This majestic property’s 2020 offspring boasts notes of blackberry, dried herbs, and star anise balanced with distinct, yet soft tannins. A Cab that complements dishes rather than overwhelming them–pairing well with game, rib eye, roasted meats, beef stew, rack of lamb, and even swordfish and tuna steaks in hearty sauces. For a good fromage pairing, try harder, salty, tangy, nutty aged cheeses such as cheddar, dry jack, aged gouda, gruyere, parmigiano reggiano, and harder sheep cheeses such as 12-month manchego.
