Color of saturated purple, looking thick. Nose of nice dark fruits with ample acidity, strawberry, and a bit oak note. Taste follows the nose with addition of nice oak barrel note, juicy ripe fruits, zest, black pepper and sprinkle of mineral. Low tannins. Just a hint of sweetness. Aftertaste is quite long. Nicely done.

#costcowines - fruit bomb, i'm sure this is a crowd pleaser, and i had hi hopes given the appellation but - alas, this lacked tannic structure and any depth aside from jammy dark fruit

Like several others here, couldn’t resist the Costco sale price for this Alexander Valley Cabernet. Impressive structure and balance (berry fruits/tannins), nose to finish.
