The 2019 Alexander Valley ‘Estate Vineyard’ Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve is a commanding wine that embodies both elegance and strength. Deep crimson in color with an inky red-black core, it opens with an inviting bouquet of freshly baked blackberries, cassis, and hints of sweet spice. On the palate, this full-bodied Cabernet unfolds in layers of black cherry, plum, and ripe red currant, beautifully interwoven with notes of rich cocoa, rhubarb jam, and a touch of espresso roast. The texture is dense and luxurious, framed by velvety tannins that give the wine structure and longevity without overshadowing its vibrant fruit. Concentrated yet poised, it finishes with remarkable length and balance, leaving echoes of dark chocolate and spice that linger gracefully. This wine’s depth and complexity make it an exceptional partner to bold, richly flavored dishes. Pair it with grilled ribeye or New York strip steak, braised short ribs with rosemary and garlic, or rack of lamb finished with a red wine reduction. It also shines alongside hearty mushroom risotto, roasted duck breast, or aged cheeses like Comté or sharp cheddar. For an indulgent finale, try it with dark chocolate truffles or flourless chocolate cake—the perfect complement to this Cabernet’s opulent character and long, satisfying finish.
