Alexander Valley muscle meets Bordeaux finesse in this polished, cellar-worthy bottling.
Dark cassis mingles with cedar shavings and crushed olive tapenade. Graphite minerality threads through tobacco-tinged mid-palate. Structured yet approachable now. Tannins firm but integrated. Classic Alexander Valley power tempered by winemaking restraint. Drinks beautifully today, holds another decade easily. Textbook California Cabernet with Old World sensibilities.
๐ท You want California Cabernet that doesn't shoutโperfect for Bordeaux lovers exploring Sonoma.
Pairs with: Grilled ribeye with herb butter, Braised short ribs, Aged cheddar, Dark chocolate tart
