Mission Hill Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2014, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia BC V.Q.A., Canada: An august, complex BC Cabernet with a seductive nose of fleshy blackberry and cassis. This red wine draws you in head first to the glass, and all your senses quickly follow. Love the layering and complexity on the mid-palate followed by a long finish. Decant 1 hour and enjoy with a pepper steak. Drink: 2016-2022. 553321 14.50% D 750 mL  $29.95 Score: 91/100. July 7, 2017 Top Rated Red Wine. Best Beef Wine Full Review

Beringer Founders' Estate Cabernet Sauvignon 2012, California, United States: Very tasty black cherry liqueur on the nose and palate, hedged by a cedar brush. Very supple and mouth-filling with terrific vibrancy. This will liven up dark meat dishes, or even those that tend to be chary or grilled a little too dry.
