Astor Wines sells Capcanes 2007 Peraj Petita. Make Elijah happy and instead of Manischewitz, opt for a Spanish red from the Montsant region. It's made from a blend of Garnacha, Carinena and Tempranillo grapes. With red fruits, plum, cassis, you'll also find some minerals and tobacco notes - concentrated, but balanced. A great pairing for beef, veal or chicken. ($19.99)
