We Love This With

If you follow Jordan's advice, you're off to a good start in making a great impression.  To bring the rest of your A game, pair this bottle with, well, game!  The bold flavors of this wine make a great companion to rich meat; we love it with an elk strip loin or gorgeous rack of venison.
