Wine Review: With a skeleton knight on the label, this brilliant medium ruby colored Cabernet Sauvignon displays ripe red cherry, black currant, cinnamon and hibiscus on the nose. It is very approachable, smooth and robust, with a medium body and medium-plus acidity. There are flavors of strawberry, red cherry, blackberry, nutmeg, vanilla oak and mocha. There are light tannins and a long dry finish. It's a fun and affordable burger wine. - Mark

Winemaker Notes: The most gallant Cabernet Sauvignon of all the land, Sir Real delivers striking layers of black fruit with a sliver of toasted spice. Unflinching notes of ripe plum and bright cassis lead the way to a rich backbone of harmonious tannin. Pair with baby back ribs, bacon blue cheese burgers and classic lasagna.
