Gary Eberle, Eberle Winery

“A 1996 Norman Vineyards ‘No Nonsense Red.’ ” It’s a meritage blend. It got a gold medal at the L.A. County Fair. It’s just a neat wine--smooth, packed with fruit. I liked everything but the name. This wine has got all sorts of nonsense. They should name it something like ‘our best Cabernet’ or ‘our best meritage blend.’ ”
