ECO-BEVERAGE REVIEW: La Rocca Vinyards 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon Organic Wine


La Rocca Cabernet Sauvignon is an organic wine recommended by the store manager at New Embassy Liquors, I found it again when I went upstate - so this wine seems popular. The number of organic wines is fairly small in the shops I have looked in numbering only a dozen or so - finding the same wine in two different shops is often either because of solid distribution or strong popularity in this writer's humble opinion.
In any case when I poured this wine it was earthy and berry to my nose - we tried it with a dark chocolate christmas cake after giving about 10 minutes to breath... It was very good smokey luscious dark berry tobacco that popped especially with the chocolate. I just got another bottle to try later with a meal and I'm looking forward to sharing this find with family and friends.

Unlike most CSAs, we offer flexible membership terms in order to make fresh produce accessible to the diverse communities we serve. Our primary goal is to eradicate food deserts in Harlem and the South Bronx. MG:  Is this a profitable venture? CHF: We are...
