This week's wine pick is a 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon from Geyser Peak Winery in Alexander Valley, California.
With a rating of 87 from Wine Enthusiast, this seemed like the right choice for today's simple supper. We had a chili and rice casserole topped with aged cheddar. The label recommends enjoying this wine with mature cheeses! For my pallet this wine tasted higher than an 87 point cab.
The wine has a nice feel. It's flavorful and has smooth consistency on the pallet. This 2005 is ready for drinking now! It would not hurt to decant it and consume with your favorite dish. This wine is a very good value! Be sure to save some for after dinner with a dark chocolate. Enjoy!
As always,
Bob
