Happy Sunday Everyone! I had the opportunity to attend the 2018 Collin County CASA Gala last night where a lot of money was raised for a fantastic cause. The Court-Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) organization provides guardians ad litem to children who have been abused. They represent the child’s interests to ensure they get the best possible outcome. This is their largest fund-raising event. The hotel hosting the event served Becker Cabernet Sauvignon Iconoclast. This wine is made in Fredericksburg, Texas. The wine was pretty smooth with some notes of spice and fruit. This wasn’t a heavy oak or bold Cabernet. It was a pretty good Texas wine where we’re not really known for great Cabernets. I conducted some research on the Becker Cabernet Sauvignon Iconoclast and didn’t find it widely available. However, they do have a Cabernet Sauvignon for around $24.00 per bottle. I have never really tried other Becker wines, so will need to conduct additional research and report back. No matter what wine we were drinking, having fun with friends and giving to a great cause always makes for a winning weekend. Rosé, Rosé I will review it in a future day. Be on the lookout for that. In the meantime, have an excellent week.
