title: Sebastiani 2005 Secolo Red Wine Red (Sonoma County)
description: This is the winery's Meritage red, although with 75% Cabernet Sauvignon they could have bottled it as that variety. It's nearly always Sebastiani's best Bordeaux-style wine, but the '05 is something of a letdown from past vintages. It's elegantly structured and nicely flavored, with subtle currant, cherry, olive and smoke flavors, but has a bitter taste throughout.
variety: Bordeaux-style Red Blend
designation: Secolo Red Wine
