2021 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon
Appellation
Alexander Valley
The fruit for our Reserve Cabernet emphasizes two of our prized hillside blocks: Block Eight and Block Six. The vines on Block Eight were planted in 1997 to the famed Belle Terre field selection, which provides striking notes of high-toned red berry fruit. Block Six was planted in 1998 to Clone 7 and adds floral layers and classic Cabernet cassis and cherry elements.
Tasting Notes
The excellent 2021 vintage has delivered everything we love about great Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, including stunning aromas of black currant, tobacco leaf, black cherry, olive, white sage, blackberry liqueur and sweet French oak. Though lush and soft on the palate, the bright and balanced natural acidity brings length and freshness to the dark berry, cassis and anise flavors, and firm tannins hint at a long, impressive life ahead.
