 I would buy this wine again

I tried this wine to compare it to another Carmenere I drink regularly, which does not rate as high as the Santa Rita. While I still prefer my usual brand, this was a nice change of pace that went great with steak.

Kosher wine
Kosher
A Kosher wine begins like every other - as grapes on a vine. Once they reach the winery for crushing, the wine is under strict rabbinal supervision.

Screw Cap wine
Screw Cap
Many studies report and winemakers agree that screw caps protect wine better and preserve its flavor more effectively than cork. More importantly, screw caps eliminate cork taint caused by TCA, a compound which develops in a small percentage of corks and ruins the taste of wine.

Organically grown grapes
