Striking medium-dark color leads to aromas of blackberries, ripe strawberries, and dry rose petals, with hints of spice and vanilla, On the palate, there is a silky, creamy mouthfeel that nicely counters the medium/big structure and enjoyable grip of this wine, with nice bright acidity and a long, enjoyable finish. A classic Alexander Valley Cabernet that can compete with any in California. It shows off restrained tannins that allow the wine to be enjoyed now, but are enough to allow this wine to age gracefully for many years.
