Light Horse Cabernet
Everyday reds from a small label we keep close.
The story behind Light Horse
Cabernet Sauvignon is the red most of us picture first: dark fruit, a firm spine of tannin, and enough structure to stand up to a grilled steak or a slow Sunday roast. The grape grows well in warm, sunny places, and the style ranges from bright and easy to dense and age worthy depending on where it is grown and how it is made.
Light Horse is a small label we stock one to two bottles of at a time here in Commack, so what you see is what we have. Both wines come in standard 750mL bottles at $10.99, a fair price for a weeknight pour.

Which Light Horse is right for you?
Both Light Horse bottles are $10.99 for a 750mL, which puts them in everyday drinking territory rather than special occasion money. That is the point of a label like this: a straightforward Cabernet for burgers on the grill and a lighter Pinot Noir for a Tuesday dinner. Stock is thin, so call 631 343 7200 before you drive over.
Firm tannin and dark fruit hold up to burgers and steak without a big spend.
Soft tannin and red cherry suit chicken, salmon, and a slight chill.
