Sebastiani Vineyards & Winery
Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
A nice Cabernet Sauvignon from Alexander Valley.
Dry on the palate with mild complexity.
Showing red and blue fruits with light wood, spices, coffee, dark chocolates, earth and tobacco leaf.
Short finish with round tannins and tangy cherries.
Good right out of the bottle and better with airtime, when tannins come in and bring more structure to the wine.
A good everyday wine and good for parties.
14.8% alcohol by volume.
88 points.
$26.

This wine is inky looking and carries a wonderfully demonstrative package of aromas. The nose has classic notes of graphite, but also features black tea, sage, oregano and a healthy lump of earth - that good, Sonoma dirt. On the palate are bright cherries, tea, herbs and minerals. The tannins are firm without being overbearing and the acidity is quite refreshing. You could chill this wine and open it next to the grill this summer - or you could have in cooler weather with a beef stew.
