| 2007 Seghesio Sonoma Zinfandel 750ml Sonoma, California  |
Product Notes: Scents of raspberries and blueberries intertwined with briar patch spices. Ripe raspberry and blueberry flavors persist. A hint of creamy oak and a silky and refined texture with a juicy character. Juicy acidity and integrated tannins smooth the finish.
Excellent paired with red sauces, pizza, BBQ, and a variety of meats and spicy cuisine.
"A seductive and vigorous Zinfandel, with smoky black cherry and blueberry aromas and youthful wild berry, sage and cracked pepper flavors that have a lingering finish and zesty tannins. Drink now through 2012."Wine Spectator

 Recipe: Steak with Mushroom Merlot Sauce Recipe
This steak recipe goes very well with merlot wine - Use some for the sauce, and the rest for your glass! INGREDIENTS: 2 10oz ribeye steaks 2 tsp pepper 2 Tbsp vegetable oil 3 Tbsp butter 6oz shiitake mushrooms 1 shallot 3/4 cup merlot 1 Tbsp thyme
First, salt and pepper steaks on both sides. Heat the vegetable oil to medium high, and then cook steaks for about 3 minutes per side.
Put the steaks on a plate but keep the oil in the pan. Put the butter in the pan, along with the wine, chopped up mushrooms and chopped up shallots and reduce for 5-10 minutes. Pour this sauce over the steaks and serve.
