One of California’s original wine producing regions is finding its way on to the world stage of late with wines like this one. Combining the red fruit and acid components of the Sangiovese with the black fruit and fleshy character of Cabernet Sauvignon, it gives a great look at what is possible down south. Locavors should swarm on this one, so if you’re out of the area, give them a ring to see what’s happening in San Diego. Contains 67% Sangiovese and 33% Cabernet Sauvignon.
