The blend: 96% merlot, 4% cabernet sauvignon
Why you should buy it: Because it's one of the most highly regarded boutique wines from Napa. Parker gave it a 91, and he appparently knows what he's talkign about. Also, the winemaker's surname is Gott and the winegrower's name is Pott. When you put those two together I, for one, am a very happy camper.
What it tastes like: Plums plucked from chocolate trees in a valley full of violets... with a fresh-brewed cup of coffee on the side.
What to serve it with: I had it with an amazing hamburger and it was, well, amazing
Say this and sound smart: Dion, Jose Feliciano, Crosby, Stills & Nash, and Billy Preston are among the many artists who've covered the Beatles' hit "Blackbird"
The price: $80
