Thanksgiving 2014. Amazing depth of flavors, currants, blackberries and a hint of cranberry and vanilla. Nose is delightful dark fruits, oak. Tannins are soft as velvet. Color retention is strong for its age, and this is drinking perfectly now, but will be for some time. Wonderful wine.

Best Zin I've had in some time. Spicy and peppery, but very balanced with lush tannins and plenty of ripe black fruit.

Really enjoy this zin, tasted twice with consistent impressions. Dark very ripe fruit with very noticeable white pepper nuances. This is a very well oaked zin, so consider that if you are not a fan of that style.

If that's the only vintage of Alexander Valley Cabernet you've tried recently, I encourage you to pull the cork on a 2006 or 2007. At Jordan, our winemaker believes the 2007 Cabernet is his finest effort to date. Best, Lisa
