We all know I love wine. Like love (I’m actually in Sonoma right now making wine with La Crema). And when the cooler temps begin to arrive I, like most, switch from a crisp white to a warm red. And other than drinking a bold Cab by a big fire another way I love enjoying reds is with my classic mulled wine recipe. Red wine combines with aromatics of cinnamon, star anis, and orange to create the most perfect warm and cozy drink of the season. Cheers! truly, MKR
