Was recommended based on our love of Alexander Valley Vineyards. Same region and grapes. Let it decant for 20-30 mins and it tastes like creamy sweet berries. Yum!

Blackberries, black plum, boysenberry, blueberries, mulberries, quite herbal with basil leading the charge, brambly and refined dusty tannins. Not a bad wine for the money. Drink now and over the next 3-5 years.

Merlot biased blend this year, and it shows, still plenty of green pepper on the nose, tannins are quite gentle. Not sure if this needs a few more years in the bottle or a few more hours in the decanter, good but could be better. (99/00/01 Comparison)

Wow, in a very nice place right now, tannins completely gone. The Merlot softens the palate, but the Cabernet still dominates on the nose. Drinking probably at peak. (99/00/01 Comparison)

Raspberry and leather, we've loved this producer for years, still showing tannins and a little green pepper. Definitely a Cabernet biased blend this year. Likely a few years left before it hits it's ultimate sweet spot. (Oh we really miss the 1997 on this bottle, it was the best!!) (99/00/01 Comparison)
