winemaker's notes:

Our 2009 Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon displays aromas of cassis and crushed berries. Flavors of blackberry, raspberry, cedar and tobacco are framed by firm, velvety tannins and a long, elegant finish.

alcohol by volume: 14.2%
critical acclaim:

"Black and red currant flavors plump up this cabernet, its peppery tannins showing a hint of raisining in the grapes. While the texture is relatively light, it's soft and juicy. Ready to pour with a steak."

Wine & Spirits

"Shows a dusty, cedary side to the dried cherry and berry flavors, ending with black licorice and cigar box touches and firm, fine-grained tannins. Drink now through 2020."

rating (11/7/2012):
Frei Brothers Alexzander Valley Cab is an excellent value and compares nicely with many Napa Cabs. It is full bodied, balanced, has plenty of dark fruits and a hint of mint on the good finish. This has become my favorite California Cab value. Many of my wine friends support this view. The 2008 vintage is slightly better (4 stars)if you can still find it. The 2009 will likely improve with a little time in the cellar.
