Fall is here, which means it is time for football, the World Series, and need I say it, a "Slab and a Cab". I prefer a California Cab, and in this case, a one and a half inch Porterhouse steak from the grill, done a perfect medium rare. The Cab is from the folks at Rodney Strong, and a great way to kick off the season!

This 2019 vintage from Sonoma County is big, bold and beautiful, and an excellent California Cab for under twenty dollars. The nose is heady, with a berry patch appeal, and the flavors range from cherry to plum, with currant and spice in between. The finish sails off into the night, with a lingering taste of delight. The alcohol content is 14.5%, and Norm's score is 91.

A perfect wine for steak, all you need to go with this California Cab, is a hot grill and a nice thick Slab!
