2012 Pra Vinera Cabernet Sauvignon

 by Jeanette Muck - Bargainista Wine Steward

The weekend is coming up and it's time to stock up on some good vino for dinner, for your gatherings with friends, or simply for your own enjoyment.

This smooth, easy to drink wine is a regular Cabernet in our store. Flavors of berries and plum, with a hint of vanilla that the oak brings through will please your taste buds.  

After it's been open for about 30 minutes it will be more flavorful and 'jammy'...a really nice fruit forward wine.
  
At $5.99 a bottle you cannot beat this wine value, no wonder it is a customer favorite as well as my own! Come on in and get a bottle or two, or three.

Don't forget to join us every 3rd Friday of each month for our fun wine tasting events. From 5 to 7pm you can taste a few featured wines and also enjoy a sampling of a food that pairs well.
