You can't go wrong with a good bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon. It's a full-bodied red wine that pairs well with food, which makes it perfect for a night out with that cute coworker, a saucy night in with your SO, or a night on the couch binge watching Netflix while you ugly-cry and eat an entire pint of ice cream. Did we mention it pairs well with chocolate? No matter the occasion, a good Cabernet Sauvignon will always make it better.

Cabernet Sauvignon (pronounced "ka-bər-ˈnā-sō-vē-ˈnyō”) is a dark red wine that ages like… well, like a fine wine. That’s actually where the saying comes from. A good bottle will have high tannins and be relatively acidic, and can be accompanied by some very unique flavors like bell pepper and black olives.

Cabernet Sauvignon is great for any occasion, that’s why it’s the most popular red wine in the world. The taste can vary greatly depending on where it was grown and how it was made, so you pick up a budget friendly bottle to go with your pasta at lunch, and splurge a little at dinner for a bottle with mint and cedar afternotes.
