Alexander's Crown

2012 Alexander Valley Sonoma County Cabernet Sauvignon

Rodney Strong Alexander's Crown Cabernet Sauvignon from the 2012 vintage is a remarkable expression of the Alexander Valley in Sonoma County. This red wine showcases a full-bodied profile, boasting a harmonious balance of high acidity that invigorates the palate. With pronounced fruit intensity, it reveals enticing notes of dark cherries, ripe plums, and a hint of blackcurrant, all beautifully interwoven with subtle undertones of oak and spice. The tannins are notably structured, providing a firm backbone that enhances the wine's overall complexity while ensuring a long, satisfying finish. As a dry wine, it pairs wonderfully with rich dishes, making it an exceptional choice for any occasion.
