Francis Coppola - Black Label Claret - Cabernet Sauvignon - 2002

This is one of my favorite wines, ever. It is certainly one of Coppola's best. Affordable at around 18-22 USD, and one of the best cabs I've ever had.

A bit dry, excellent balance in flavor, alcohol, and nose. I highly recommend this wine for a fine aged cheddar, or other cheese begging for a quality red. The 2002 is getting a little harder to find, so I highly recommend you pick up a few bottles for the future.
