WINE
Don't even bother trying to find a $13 California cab as good as the Viña Perez Cruz Cabernet Sauvignon. Red fruit, meat and herb/olive notes beam through on the nose and palate, and there's nice grip and texture all the way through the smooth but stout finish. It's a wonderful introduction to Chile's impressive array of cabernets. Try this with all manner of beef, from burgers on up, or with roasted winter veggies. Available at Lowertown Liquors, Lakeside, Up North, Wayzata muni, Short Stop, North Branch, U.S. Liquor and others.
