Winemaker's Notes:

 A blend of 95% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Merlot.

The 2007 Alcance Cabernet is deeply colored, dense and vibrant. The nose is laced with blackberries, blueberries and sage. The palate blends ripe fruit flavors, firm tannins and balanced acidity. This is a tight, concentrated, block-selected wine that will soften and expand with time in the bottle.
