Michael David Cabernet Sauvignon "Earthquake" 2010

Trust me, in this pic, there is a glass of dark deliciousness.

I am not as familiar with Michael David wines as I now want to be. After this delicious pairing with a giant rare steak at Mastro's in Beverly Hills, I am very eager to learn more.

The conventional rhetoric is to describe a pairing wine as "hungry," and it is hard to say this is one of those because it seemed lovely as is, but it did also go well with the steak I ordered.

What I remember of this was that it was complex, jammy, and generally wonderful. I was surprised that this tasted so mature for being a 2010. I don't quite know what that means.

Bottom line: Amazing when paired with steak. I'm willing to bet it is also amazing when bedrinkled alone.
