Cyrus is our limited production, handcrafted, proprietary red wine from the Wetzel Family Estate. Displaying rich, concentrated fruit, spicy oak, a velvety mouth feel, and a lasting finish, the 2001 Cyrus is a testament to estate grown Alexander Valley grapes and fine winemaking. This wine displays intense aromas of black cherry, plum, cassis and chocolate. Firm tannins and a long finish balance the full mouth feel. Alexander Valley Vineyards is located on the original homestead of Cyrus Alexander, a nineteenth century pioneer and namesake of the valley. This vintage was released on Cyrus read more...

Really Really good. The spend the time necessary in barrel on this wine-and don't just make it pricier because they feel like it. It's limited production, well-aged in oak, balanced, and opens up beautifully with a little air or time
