  • 1 ounce Robert Mondavi Private SelectionBourbon Barrel-Aged Cabernet Sauvignon
  • 2 ounce your favorite bourbon
  • 1 ounce lemon juice
  • 1 ounce simple syrup

Method
 

For the wine cocktail:
  1. Combine simple syrup, lemon, and bourbon in a cocktail shaker.
  2. Fill with ice and shake for 30 seconds.
  3. Strain over ice and gently pour wine over the back of a spoon for a floater.
  4. Optional: sometimes, we like to add an orange peel to the shaker tin depending on our mood. It brings more of an old fashioned flavor to the cocktail.
For the simple syrup:
  1. Bring 1/2 cup sugar and 1/2 cup water to a low boil. Reduce to low for 8 minutes.
