If you're looking for a drink to pair with the House of the DragonSeason 1 finale,?? ??? ?? look no further than House of the DragonWines from Seven Kingdoms Cellars, a division of Vintage Wine Estates.
There are three House of the Dragon Wines, all of them reds in a fitting tribute to the Targaryens' house words: "Fire and blood." You have your choice of a 2021 pinot noir from Oregon, a 2020 cabernet sauvignon from California, and a 2020 red wine blend from the Lodi appellation in California. Each 750 ml bottle costs $20 on the House of the Dragon Wines website; you can also the use the website's location checker to find where the wines are sold near you.
SEE ALSO: Everyone's thirsty for Emma D'Arcy's 'Negroni Sbagliato... with Prosecco in it'Seven Kingdoms Cellars sent me samples of the wines so I could try them for myself. I was a big fan of both the quality of the wines and the overall presentation.

The "House of the Dragon" Wines Credit: Belen Edwards The bottles alone are perfect collector's items for any House of the Dragon fan. Each label bears the sigil of House Targaryen — a three-headed dragon — as well as the title of the show. The foil wine capsule also sports a subtle dragon scale pattern, and if you look at the top of the bottle, you'll find another Targaryen sigil. Finally, the corks for each bottle are emblazoned either with a curling dragon tail, a dragon head, or a dragon egg, as well as the words "House of the Dragon." Just opening the bottle becomes a fan experience!

The lightest of the three was the Pinot Noir, which had a silky, fruity flavor and a slight oaky finish. Next up was the Cabernet Sauvignon. I found this to be the sharpest and most acidic of the three, with a darkly sweet and full-bodied taste. Finally, the boldest of the wines, and my personal favorite, was the red blend. It was the richest of the three, and would pair well with a dessert — or with the end of a particularly stressful House of the Dragon episode.
