Cabernet that strikes a chord

Dark, contemplative, and bold, D Minor is a red wine that hits like a haunting chord. It might make you want to light some candles and dawn a black shawl. Or perhaps it will accompany you on a movie marathon of the greatest horror flicks in history (if you’re into that kind of thing). Whatever you do, be sure to carefully select your partner in wine—they won’t want to miss this! D Minor unfolds beautifully with aromas of blackcurrant, cassis, and a drop of dark chocolate, followed by plush, velvety tannins, and a smooth finish.

 

Along the river in FrancE

Cabernet Sauvignon grows happily along the Dordogne River and the Garonne Estuary in southwest France. Here, the clouds might linger all summer, resulting in structured wines that play with savory, herbaceous notes. France is the birthplace of this exquisite grape, and thanks to the variable weather that changes from year to year, each vintage of Cabernet is a unique surprise. The French take pride in their unique wines and go with the flow. Take a sip and see for yourself how the wines of France hum a different tune.
 

Your food and wine pairing guide

Cabernet Sauvignon is a classic grape with smooth tannins; it has everything you need to pair it with a hearty meal. You might find a divine pairing in a peppery steak like ribeye or flat iron. Or you can keep it vegetarian and make a three-bean chili or smoked gouda mac and cheese.
