We've been a big supporter of the Keenan Cabernet since we opened The Market, but I was surprised by the quality of the other wines we tasted. I don't know why. I just assumed Keenan was more a Cabernet house than anything else.
The Chardonnay, Merlot, and, of all things, Cabernet Franc, were outstanding.
And what is Michael Keenan's favorite varietal? Hands down - Merlot! He says he drinks Merlot more than any other wine - probably 5 out of the 7 days in a week.
Incidentally,The Cafe Napoli in Clayton was excellent. I hadn't been in a while, and I almost forgot how good this place can be. House salad and chicken Marsala for lunch was a real treat!
