Description
Optima Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is characterized by a wonderful forward, rich nose with generous bright fruit and deep, concentrated, multi-layered aromas of dark red cherry and caramel. Espresso and cassis mingle with hints of dark chocolate and rose pedals. Well-integrated elements of sweet oak and vanilla carefully complement the fruit flavors and the round, rich silky middle. Supple on the palate, yet with a weighty, fruity mouthfeel and a medium tannic finish. The robust profile makes it ideal for big flavor meats. Given proper cellaring this wine will give drinking pleasure for years to come, adding roundness and complexity.
