What it tastes like
Ripe dark plum and blackberry up front, a hint of red currant and dried strawberry, and a whisper of cedar and sage on a smooth, medium-bodied finish.
You’ll like this if…
You like easy, fruity Cabernet with soft edges - think everyday California or Chilean Cab rather than a firm, tannic Bordeaux.
Why buy it
Under eleven dollars for a recognizable Cabernet from a long-running family wine company; a sensible bottle to keep on hand or to open for a crowd.
Best for
Burgers, pizza, pasta night and casual get-togethers where you want a red that pleases everyone.
Style
Fruit-forward, medium-bodied, dry with a plush impression; light oak and gentle tannins.
Drinks like
Similar in spirit to other value Cabernets and Cabernet-Merlot blends from Chile's Central Valley and California's interior - soft, plummy and ready to drink.
Experience level
Beginner-friendly - approachable, low in tannin bite, and forgiving if served a little warm or a little cool.
Flavor notes
Pairs well with
grilled sirloin or a weeknight burger · aged cheddar or manchego on a simple board · baked ziti or spaghetti with meat sauce · pulled pork or barbecue chicken thighs · pepperoni or sausage pizza

About the winery · Pepperwood Grove (Don Sebastiani & Sons) ›
Pepperwood Grove is a value-focused label from Don Sebastiani & Sons, the Sonoma- and Napa-based wine company founded in 2001 by Don Sebastiani with his sons Donny and August. The family's wine roots in California run back four generations to Samuele Sebastiani, who began making wine in Sonoma in the early 1900s, and to August Sebastiani, who helped popularize affordable varietal wines for American shoppers. Rather than farming a single estate, Pepperwood Grove works as a negociant, buying fruit from wine regions the team considers a good fit each year, from California to Chile to South Africa. The stated goal is straightforward: fresh, food-friendly, consistent wines at a casual price. The company was named American Winery of the Year by Wine Enthusiast in 2005, and its wider portfolio includes Smoking Loon, The Crusher, Aquinas and B Side.
