I have now had this wine twice at The Barrel Thief ($9 a glass and $27 a bottle). The blend is superb with a hearty mouth feel. It's the taste that comes to my mind when a Napa meritage is mentioned.
And The Barrel Thief's price is great. The Hess website sells it for $36.

I love this wine, but generally don't have a clue about good wine/food pairings. What do you suggest or have you had it with? I ordered a case from Hess when it was available from the winery and could use some suggestions.
The first time I had this wine, there was no food involved. And it is oh so delicious just by its lonesome. If having at home I would pair it with a NY Strip (salted and peppered) pan fried in a bit of olive oil and butter to medium rare.
No matter what enjoy the case!
