Carmen Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2005

Fall is my favorite season. The cooler days, earlier sunsets and almost-cold nights, are just a few things that come to mind. Yet nothing can beat, (in my opinion), a night sitting on the porch (layered in sweatshirts), or a fall camping trip, (maybe in the Catskills), with a bottle or two of organic wine.

Red wine provides a sense of warmth and spice, which to me pairs best with the crisp fall air, fallen leaves and transitions to a more hearty organic cuisine.

Pairing a great organic red wine with a great organic dinner can be one of life’s simple pleasures.

The Carmen Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2005 from Chile has a deep ruby color with intense aromas of red fruits, blackberries and a nice toasty gradation. It’s the perfect pairing for an awesome Lamb Roast with Blackberry Sauce creatively created by the awe-inspiring, gourmet diva, Pace Webb.

Wine and food are meant to be enjoyed together and that holds true whether you’re having a five-course gourmet meal or takeout.

In each aspect of our lives, we want to make choices that both maximize our health and minimize our impact on the environment.

“Greening” your wine and food choices, then combining the two is a great way to feel good from the inside and out. Head on over to The Green Girls to pick up Pace’s Lamb Roast recipe, then get cooking.
