Approachable, peppery, chocolaty.

Poplar Grove's second label, Monster Vineyards, offers a fun assortment of wines such as Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc and a rose.
This is a blend of Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon and leads with bittersweet chocolate and mixed wild black berries with saddle leather, green olives, peppery spices and dried herbs. The palate is sweet, supple and approachable with a silky and spiced finish.
Pair: Burgers, pizza, ribs or chili - anything you can throw on the grill.
