One of the Best Lodi Red Wines I have Ever Tasted! - Dan Berger

Mettler Family Vineyards 2000 Cabernet Sauvignon, Lodi

“At the recent Los Angeles County Fair Wine Competition, I was on a panel evaluating mid-priced ($13-$25) Cabernets, and was pleased to discover some excellent values.

Not surprisingly, some were from producers or regions not known for making great Cabernet. In this week’s tasting notes, there are a number of excellent wines that verge on greatness, at a price not seen in a few years.

“Lovely cherry fruit with a trace of dried herbs, fairly deeply flavored with a drink-now generosity. One of the best Lodi red wines I have ever tasted! Try with lamb loin.”

One of 9 wines that were “by far the best” out of 82 tried - Exceptional!
