On our last night visiting our friends in Grand Cayman, our hosts Steve & Steven prepared us a dinner to remember on Steve’s rooftop deck. Steve cooked a delicious meal which included both steak and lobster. Earlier in the evening we popped a bottle of Moët & Chandon, but Steven had also brought along this Bordeaux to enjoy with our dinner.
As a general rule, I’m a big fan of wines from Bordeaux. After a little digging online I learned this is a Cabernet-heavy blend that also includes Cabernet Franc and Merlot grapes, which explains the full body taste that paired better with the grilled steak than the Caribbean crustacean. I’ve noticed that reviews from other sites concur with my estimations that this is a solid wine that you can readily enjoy and rely upon each year. A quick search online suggested that this retails in the US for approximately $25 – $30 per bottle.
