As a CK Mondavi Ambassador, I’ll be sharing wine and food ideas with you over the coming months. As always, all opinions are my own.
Fall and winter are the perfect time to enjoy a classic pot roast. My husband LOVES making a classic beef pot roast with red wine. As much as he loves to cook, pot roast is not only one of his favorite meals to enjoy but also one of his favorite meals to make. We love pairing it with a Cabernet Sauvignon like the CK Mondavi and Family Cabernet Sauvignon.

I’ve been looking for a good pot roast recipe, especially since it is on sale this week at Publix. This is also a great excuse to buy more wine. I’m looking forward to making this for my family this week. 🙂
I haven’t made a pot roast like this in ages, and boy does it ever look good I have to get the ingredients and make this soon! And the wines sound perfect for it, too.
