  I bought this at the winery in 2011. At that time I found it quite tannic, and was only half-heartedly optimistic that it would improve significantly with age. Well tonight, after 5 years, it was time, so this wine accompanied lamb chops. I have to say it was terrific. Very smooth, the tannins had mellowed into submission, and it was delightful from start to finish. Little trace of the belligerent tannicity that marred the winery sampling. This wine was on its best behavior, and was a standout. Those of you who still have some: Now is the time. Drink up.

  I can find better cabs than this all day long at Trader Joe's, BevMo, Total Wine etc. this is a tannic monster that shows no character for a 9 year old wine. I know and love and own many Alexander Vly Cabs...this does not rep the area. Not sure if it needs 3 or 4 more years but I think it's not going to help this poorly made wine. Too bad!

  Have to give this a solid 90 if only for its QPR. Medium weight, but a wonderful balanced structure with hints of anise, leather, and peach. Drinking well now.
