The 2010 is a blend of all five Bordeaux varietals. The wine was barrel aged for 14 months in French and American oak. This Cabernet Sauvignon shows a bit more restraint than prior vintages. To balance that elegant restraint, Winemaker Kevin Hall added 7%

It tends to have a softer tannin profile than our Cabernet Sauvignon and the 2010 has flavors of plum, black cherry, vanilla, blueberry and cassis. This is not a heavy wine, but it does have broad mouthfeel and a long, juicy finish.


Winemaker's Notes:

Alexander Valley Vineyards Wetzel Family Estate Alexander Cabernet Franc has a soft texture with a long finish. Typical of Cabernet Franc, there is a beautiful floral nose with aromas of dusty cherry, blueberry, oak, vanilla and plum. In the glass there are flavors of plum, black cherry, vanilla and blueberry. 085798049622
