If you're unfamiliar with the Oakville AVA (American Viticultural Area) of Napa Valley, suffice it to say, it is home to some of the most prestigious Cabernet Sauvignon-focused wineries in the entire world. And Trader Joe’s Diamond Reserve Oakville Cabernet, Lot 3 comes from what is arguably the most famous and influential of them all. (Of course, we can’t tell you which one, because then we’d have to charge you a lot more!)

On the palate, dark fruit dominates, with supportive vanilla and oak tones to add just the right element of elegance. In fact, each sip is so superbly balanced, with its rich layers of cherry and luxuriously velvety consistency, that it hardly needs any pairing to be fully appreciated. That said, it will mingle most excellently with the flavors of a homecooked Rib Roast, pasta with tomato sauce, and cheeses of all kinds. 

Pick up a bottle for yourself and a spare to gift to loved ones for the holidays. Just be sure to hurry—quantities are limited, and if we've learned anything, it's that our Diamond Reserves go really fast!
