Rodney Strong, Alexander Valley (Sonoma County, California) Cabernet Sauvignon 2009

Nov 15, 2011

By Michael Apstein

 Rodney Strong was a pioneer in the Alexander Valley, showing how this part of Sonoma can make beautiful Cabernet.  This rendition continues their streak with generous, but not overdone, plum-like flavors accented with attractive herbal notes. Suave tannins lend support without astringency.
