PRODUCT DETAILS:

Member's Mark Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignon

This dry, rich, and flavorful red hails from Paso Robles in California’s Central Coast region. Aged for 10 months in American oak barrels, it showcases exceptional depth and structure. Notes of black cherry and plum are accentuated by hints of oak, leather, and vanilla that lead to a satisfying finish. This Cabernet Sauvignon is wonderfully food-friendly, and it pairs well with grilled meats, hard cheeses, and even decadent chocolate.

Member's Mark Lodi Old Vine Zinfandel

From Lodi, California, “the Zinfandel Capital of the World,” comes a red bursting with jammy fruitiness. Dry and medium-bodied, this wine entices with aromas of blackberry bramble, plum, and toast that carry into the palate, joined by hints of spice from oak barrel aging. Its bold flavor is balanced by medium acidity and supple tannins that lend a rounded mouthfeel. This Zinfandel will get along famously with barbecue foods.

Member's Mark Sonoma County Pinot Noir

Fruity and food-friendly, this Pinot Noir shines with bright acidity. It was crafted in Northern California’s Sonoma County, which produces world-class wines including elegant Pinot. Dry and light-bodied, this red expresses fresh raspberry and wild strawberry with subtle spice notes and hints of minerality. The fine, velvety tannins make it versatile enough to complement chicken, salmon, mushrooms, soft cheeses, pasta, and salads.

Member's Mark Mendoza Malbec

Indulgent and bold, this Malbec hails from Mendoza, a leading wine region in Argentina that specializes in the varietal. This full-bodied red offers delicious layers of complexity, as rich and juicy dark fruit notes like plum and blackberry mingle with sweet spice and tea leaves. The finish is wonderfully smooth with balanced acidity, making this Malbec tasty on its own or with red meats, mature cheeses, and Argentinian specialties like empanadas.

Serving Tips

A wine’s aromas and flavors are enhanced by allowing it to “breathe” when you first open the bottle. This can be achieved by simply letting it sit in a glass, using a decanter, or pouring through an aerator. It takes about 30 minutes for most reds (more tannic varieties like Cabernet Sauvignon may need about 60 minutes to soften). Serving red wine, especially lighter varieties, slightly chilled will also bring out the intensity of their flavors.

Food Pairing

This deliciously complex collection of red wines is perfect for pairing with a variety of full-flavored dishes. These reds are ripe for enjoyment alongside red meats like seared steak, juicy burgers, or roasted leg of lamb. For vegetarian fare, serve with roast broccolini, sauteed mushrooms, or grilled kabobs with a medley of bell peppers, eggplant, tomato, onion, and zucchini. Any of these red varietals will also complement chocolates or after-dinner wafers.
