J. Lohr’s "Pure Paso" is a lush red blend dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon with Petite Sirah adding heft and length along with small contributions from Merlot, Petit Verdot and Malbec. With its polished soft texture the wine is intense but not overbearing, making it a fine partner for meaty dishes, from steak to burgers, as well as most of the grain-centric fare we are all being encouraged to eat these days.
