Scherrer Cabernet at Prasino Wicker Park

Cabernet grapes in Sonoma Co, CaliforniaThanks to Keith Malini, GM at Prasino Wicker Park, for bringing a selection of Fred Scherrer’s wines onto his list.

The restrained tannins of the Sonoma Co. Cabernet work very well with chili spice and red meat. I want to pair it with Chef Halverson’s Ancho Braised Lamb Shank.

 

The video below captures Fred explaining his Cabernet program at the family’s vineyard and why the Sonoma County bottling isn’t made in every vintage.
