TASTING NOTES:
Ripe and direct, with red licorice-wrapped plum and cherry compote flavors, backed by a healthy dose of roasted vanilla. Keeps good energy throughout, with an echo of tobacco in the background. Drink now through 2025. 40,000 cases made.

WINEMAKER'S NOTES:
The Alexander valley is hot by day, but cooled by coastal breezes at night. We select our grapes from the coveted hillside vineyards in the Alexander valley, where a unique combination of soil and climate work together to create unparalleled complexity and flavor. This Cabernet Sauvignon opens with aromas of cassis and crushed berries. On the palate, flavors of blackberry, raspberry, cedar and tobacco are framed by firm, velvety tannins and a long, elegant finish.
