An Amazing Red Wine

Had a pleasant surprise the other night at Farradday's in the Isle Casino in Pompano.  Asked Jacek, our bartender who's name we never knew until this very night - pronounced YAH-check), for a glass of Red, either Cab or Merlot. Left it up to him. His choice/recommendation.  He brought me this one: Girard Artistry 2008 - A Red Blend.  I was blown away! It had the best of all of it's varietal components all rolled into one. Soft like a Merlot, fruity like a Malbec, complex, tight finish like a Cabernet. It was like drinking an Everlasting-Gobstopper!  Can't wait to find this one in our local wine stores.
