Mission Codename Take THAT, Tax Man!
We wanted to give our Operatives a little relief on Tax Day, and WOW, did we find a wallet-friendly gem. Today’s Deerfield Ranch Winery 2009 @Cabernet Sonoma County Reserve drinks like a $50+ Napa Cab, but at just $22.99, you won’t have to worry about dipping into that refund for this one!
Today’s wine comes from Operative (and Agent!) favorite Deerfield Ranch. We have consistently been blown away by their wines, and today’s Cab is most certainly no different. Full of rich dark fruit, sweet terroir, and subtle dark spice, today’s wine had us eagerly reaching for more. A few members of our tasting panel were absolutely shocked that such a fantastic wine was available for under $25.
We can’t recommend today’s outstanding Cab any more highly. And, with this Cab at a stunning 45% off, I can think of quite a few Agents who can’t wait to take advantage of this deal!
