Don’t get me wrong, I love refined, lower alcohol, Old World wines – they’re classy, interesting, rich with history and go great with food. However, sometimes you just want a bold, in-your-face Napa Valley Cabernet that’s as powerful and big as a linebacker. That being said, on those days when subtlety just won’t cut it, there are a few Napa wines on constant rotation in my house… like those from Jessup Cellars. I’ve been in their wine club for over 5 years not only because they produce decently priced (for Napa, at least) tasty wines, but also because they are consistently good from vintage to vintage (they make more than just Napa Cabs, too).
