2021
Cabernet Sauvignon
Sonoma County, California
Nestled on the south-facing slopes of Chalk Hill, the 2021 Alexander Valley Cabernet exudes the savory fruit we crave from the finer wines of the region. Blueberry, blackcurrant and stewed plum are present across the entire palate and are paired with the distinct and abundant tannin from both fruit and barrel. Hints of tobacco and leather combined with lilac fill the nose. Aged 23 months in French Oak Barrels (55% New) – Only 7 barrels produced
$90 each
The 2021 Alexander Valley-Chalk Hill Cabernet Sauvignon is a limited production that highlights the strength and nuance of the fruit found at the southern end of the Alexander Valley AVA. The particular vineyard block selected for this wine is nestled on a south-facing slope within the rolling hills of the Battle Vineyard and provides ideal soil structure and sun exposure to ensure consistency and a powerful character.
“The 2021 Alexander Valley Cabernet exudes the savory fruit we crave from the finer wines of the region. Blueberry, blackcurrant, and stewed plum are present across the entire palate, along with the classic cabernet notes including black cherry and are paired with the distinct and abundant tannin from both fruit and barrel. Hints of tobacco and leather combined with lilac fill the nose creating a well-rounded and compelling experience.” - DM
