Casa Lapostolle Cuvee Alexandre Cabernet Sauvignon(2005)
Nose: Complex and attractive nose composed mainly by red fruits such as black-cherries, plums and wild berries combined with mocha, cedar and tobacco. Sweet finish of vanilla and fine herbs.
Mouth: Soft and juicy tannins shows an interesting complexity and a full body. Well balanced, elegant and attractive oak that enhances the fruit to finish with a long and pleasant aftertaste.
Service and food pairing: Ready to drink now or cellar for several years. Decant and serve at 16-18. Ideal companion for meats and elaborate dishes.

- Delicious - one of the best of the tasting, and at a great price. Strikes a nice balance between elegance and ripeness, with focused blackberry and black plum fruit layered with dark chocolate, clove, coffee and just a touch of mint. Generous, plush finish. Ready to drink now.
