Alexander Valley, Sonoma County, California, United StatesNot a big change over the past ten months. This remains a cool, peppery red with cedar, cassis and tobacco notes. The palate is round, the tannins beginning to fade but still rough and drying with earthy cassis and savoury, menthol cherry and cocoa in the finish. There is some heat, but all in all a sold dry red with some structure. Try this with lamb chops or beef kabobs.Tasted: 27 January 2017Tasted by: Prices:

Alexander Valley, Sonoma County, California, United StatesNot as ripe as you might hope for from the Alexander Valley, this cool, peppery, red is long on cedar, cassis and tobacco notes. The palate is round, the tannins grippy/grainy tannins and more, earthy, cassis and chocolate flavours flecked with savoury, menthol cherry and cocoa. The finish is dry with peppery note. Still youthful this bottle needs a year or two more of ageing. Try this with beef kabobs.Tasted: 18 April 2016Tasted by: Prices:
