Shepherd's Pie!

[quijote]

On my way to the Gigondas, I decided to opt for a Casa Lapostolle Cab instead. It went very nicely with the dish--a hearty wine for hearty food. And I figured I'd save the $18 bottle of Gigondas for a dish that's more of a sure bet.

Thanks for the replies; I'll probably try a Rioja with it tomorrow.
