Wine Enthusiast Review
Rated 91
A beautiful Cabernet, dry and smooth in tannins, offering polished flavors of blackberries, currants, herbs and cedar. Really outstanding and classy.

• Wine Description
  Flavors and aromas which are synonymous with Alexander Valley Cabernet such as cedar, tobacco, olive, licorice, cocoa, cassis and raspberry are all unveiled with this 2006 Lake Sonoma Winery release. Solid and lengthy tannins with balanced acid support and provide structure for complexity and aging.
• Winemaker Notes
  The grapes for this wine were crushed and fermented warm. The juice was then pumped over to ensure regular skin contact. The wine was pressed off the skins at dryness and allowed to settle in a stainless steel tank. It was racked to 60 gallon French and American oak barrels to finish malolactic fermentation. This wine has been barrel aged for 28 months.
• Food Recommendations
  This Alexander Valley Cabernets full-bodied flavor pairs superbly with all grilled meats and roasts.
