This wine is very racy and succulent! Rich, beautiful red fruits, maraschino cherry(not the cheep-o cherries at your local dive bar..true maraschino cherries), mocha, allspice, vanilla bean, smooth tannins, medium plus body, and a very nice lingering finish! Overall, a fantastic red blend from Alexander Valley! I give this a 92! Drinks similar to their Dry Creek single vineyard cab without the heavier backbone of the cab!

I was really looking forward to trying this, but sadly I don't love it. It has some harshness to it.
