OMGoodness.
I know I talk about wine every week and with all honesty, I love each wine that write about.
However, the 2007 Sean Minor Four Bears Cabernet goes above love. It’s amazing. And frankly worth two to three times its small $13.99 price.
Here’s why.
1. It’s a Cabernet from Napa that is under $15.00.
2. It received 87 points from Wine Spectator.
3. It has one of the best noses and finishes I’ve ever had. The new oak smells divine and leaves a lingering finish that is just plain “yummy”.
4. It has the right amount of tannins. So your mouth doesn’t feel like it ate sandpaper, but at the same time you get a very rich mouth “feel” when you drink it.
5. It has enough tannins to support buying a case (or two – like me) of this wine to have on hand and drink over the next year.
6. The winemaker, Sean Minor, grew up in Overland Park.
This wine is amazing.
I promise…if you are red drinker who loves a good Cabernet, you will not be disappointed..
In fact, you may be emailing me about your new found addiction and how it is eating into your grocery budget.

Note: This wine should be available at most liquor outlets. Please be responsible when you drink wine – and never drive drunk…seriously, that is just stupid in this day in age.
