Des Moines Wine and Food Connection: Autumn Reds Tasting Postscript

Autumn Reds Tasting Postscript

Casa di Vino's "Autumn Reds" tasting went great Tuesday. Poured one white and five reds. Going by sales, Torres 07 Sangre de Toro (Blood of the Bull), a Spanish Garnacha/Carinena blend and the Rosenblum Contra Costa Zinfandel 06 were the stars. I made a crock pot of venison & chorizo stew/chili and folks ate it up with the wines. Particularly with the Europeans and more tannic wines a bit of food along side brings out the best in the wine.
