Stonestreet Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2004
Cabernet Sauvignon
from Sonoma County, California
winemaker's notes:
Varietal Composition: 77% Cabernet Sauvignon,
17% Merlot, 6% Syrah
Winemaker Graham Weerts handcrafted this wine exclusively from
Stonestreet's Alexander Mountain Estate vineyards. Powerful and layered, this Cabernet Sauvignon is a
fitting representation of the complicated, and rugged Alexander
Mountain terroir. This epic mountain's cooler temperatures and lean,
rock-strewn soils yield wines of concentrated flavor, color and
exceptional complexity.
"Ruby-red. Suave and intensely aromatic, with lush cherry and cassis aromas underscored by gentle oak spice notes. Silky in texture, with sweet cherry compote and blackcurrant flavors, soft tannins and impressive power on the finish. Sweet and impressively seamless cabernet." -Steven Tanzer's, International Wine Cellars
