Wine Review: J-E-T-S JETS! WINE! What?

An unlikely pairing has come together to surprise us all. The New York Jets have teamed up with winemaker Marco DiGiulio to create a limited edition Cabernet Sauvignon to commemorate the opening of their new stadium. The wine is appropriately named “Jets Uncorked” and if you think this wine tastes like a locker room smells, you are terribly mistaken. This 2008 Napa Cabernet Sauvignon is made in a classic cab style offering up pure, ripe flavors of red cherries and dark berries. The supple tannins are beautifully complemented by a long spicy finish. This wine is absolutely irresistible and is a touchdown in my book. Whether you pop the cork now or decide to wait until the Jets win the Super Bowl I highly recommend you try a bottle!
