Here’s a red blend for Father’s Day from an Australian producer, known for delivering quality for around $20.
The Three Monks (about $17, available at Centennial and Central Market) is 70 percent cabernet sauvignon and 30 percent merlot, which means it’s hardy enough to stand up to big steaks but isn’t overwhelming. Best yet, it’s not only low in alcohol for an Aussie wine (14 percent), but it has a bit of French style, so that the fruitiness doesn’t overwhelm the wine.
