Normally a fizzy liquid in your goblet means you're the designated driver (and we support that fully, for the record, so keep that practice up!) But wouldn't it be nice to enjoy that fizz AND some wine? Go on, think it over. We're not going anywhere. Take your time.
Oh, great, you're back! And clearly, you've decided to agree with us. Good choice. You're going places. And you'll be carrying a twelve pack of Mirage "Not Bad Fizzy Cab" with you.
That's right, this wine has nutmeg, mint, notes of cherry and berry in the nose, and an all-overpowering fizzzzzzzzzz. The bouquet will tickle your nose as it tickles your fancy, and don't get cute, because the fancy is just beside the pineal gland, so stop thinkin' whatever it is you're thinkin'.
A fizzy wine is a rare treat. Take full advantage of how you're wasting the day after Christmas on the Internet, and grab up this twelve pack! Then you'll have an excuse when other people start talking about snort spending time with their families.

2009 Mirage Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon, Monterey County, 750ml 12-Pack
First and foremost: This wine is fizzy. Whether because of secondary fermentation* or elven magic, there is an effervescence to this wine that blows off after an hour or so. The nose has notes of cherries and red berries; luscious cherries and piquant blackberries and notes of sage and cedar; tar and pepper; nutmeg and mint on the palate. Supple tannins clutch and nuanced finish.
*Secondary fermentation occurs when traces of sugar and yeast are left in the wine after bottling.The wine develops a little bit of spritz or tiny bubbles.
