Cyrus Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2021

Dark ruby in color with a short reddish rim.

Beautiful nose of black currants, plums, cooked cherries, cedar, spices, licorice, chocolates, light vanilla, coffee, earth and herbs.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with blackberries, black currants, plums, cherries, light cedar, earth, coffee, herbs, light vanilla, toast, tobacco leaf and chocolates.

Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.

This is a delicious Cabernet Sauvignon based Bordeaux blend from Alexander Valley. Rich and fruit forward, elegant and nicely balanced.

Still young, but already enjoyable, even by itself. Needs a few years in the bottle to mature properly, and will continue to age nicely in the next 10 to 15 years. Showing good potential to become a 94+ point wine.

Wine Enthusiasts 93 points.

The nose reminds me of a Napa Cabernet. Complex and entertaining.

A great sipping wine that will pair nicely with food too.

A blend of 55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 26% Merlot, 15% Cabernet Franc, 2% Petit Verdot and 2% Malbec. Aged in (25% new) French and American Oak barrels for 24 months.

14.3% alcohol by volume.

92 points.

Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2022

Ruby in color with a wide reddish rim.

Fruity nose with red and black fruits, light wood, chocolates, light earth, herbs and black pepper.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with black currants, blueberries, plums, licorice, light cedar, earth, milk chocolates, tobacco leaf, herbs and peppercorn.

Nice length on the finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.

This is a very tasty Cabernet Sauvignon from Alexander Valley. Rich and fruit forward. Elegant and nicely balanced, complex and entertaining.

Very true to the Terroir, and shows very much like an Alexander Valley Cabernet.

Still young, and needs a few years in the bottle to mature properly. Will continue to age nicely in the next 7 years.

Good right out of the bottle, and better with airtime. Easy drinking and good by itself or with food.

A blend of 94% Cabernet Sauvignon and 6% Petit Verdot. Aged in (50% new) French oak barrels for 18 months.

14.3% alcohol by volume.

This wine tastes like warm California sunshine. I’d say it’s at the end of its pleasurable drinking window. Good mix of secondary/tertiary character — 2 months ago

Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon 2015

Post dinner party notes. Third bottle I’ve had of this and by far the best yet. Amazing. Such a complex nose, with roasted herbal notes, dark spicy fruit, earthy mineral iodine notes Tannins just about completely resolved. Length and depth for days. Wow. — 6 months ago

Interesting. I might have this wine as well. I seem to recall it was so super oaky, couldn’t taste anything. Glad to read that it became more balanced.
