Kestrel Lady in Red Columbia Valley Red Blend NV 16th Edition

From: Yakima, Columbia Valley, WashingtonBlend: Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Merlot, Tempranillo Taste: The latest edition of their celebrated 'Lady in Red' blend pays homage to Cindy Walker. The wine encapsulates the essence of Kestrel Vintners with its jammy fruit aromas and flavors of cherries, plums, and berries, complemented by hints of toasted oak, spice, and a smooth, lingering finish. Pairing: When pairing Cabernet Sauvignon, a wine known for its intense and bold flavor, choosing heartier and richer dishes is advisable. These robust flavors complement the wine by cutting through its intensity. Conversely, opting for lighter fare, such as certain fish dishes, can lead to an imbalance where the wine's strong flavor overwhelms the delicate taste of the food, which is different from the desired outcome. This wine should be paired with rich, fatty steaks, grilled lamb, caramelized onion burgers, and vegetarian options like Portabello mushrooms.Lamb Patties With Fried Onions And Tahini
