It’s not just Napa Valley that delivered the goods in 2018. This beautiful Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon shows the red fruit character that I associate with the appellation, and it’s deeply extracted here, with complementary dried herbs, pepper and dry earth minerality. Its supple grip keeps the flavors integrated and lingering long. Here’s to the other side of the mountain!
