Note di degustazione
Good deep red. Redcurrant, tobacco and fresh herbs on the nose, along with pepper and pungent American oak scents (50% new). Supple on entry, then a bit dry and leafy in the middle, with a green streak partly hidden by exotic oak. Finishes with rather dry tannins. Not my style. The strong peppery pyrazine character is no doubt largely due to the very uneven bloom in 2004.

The Alexander Valley cuvee is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon aged in new oak. Somewhat superficial and light by the standards of this winery, the well-made 2004 Cabernet Sauvignon Alexander Valley lacks that extra layer of depth, texture, and fruit. Herbaceous, with sweet red and black currant fruit, spice box, and tell-tale oakiness, this is a wine to drink during its first decade of life. (Release date 8/09) Tel.
