Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

The Hanna Elias Cabernet Sauvignon hails from the esteemed winegrowing region of Alexander Valley, where the vines bask in optimal sun and cooling influences from the Russian River to produce exceptional fruit. This Cabernet Sauvignon showcases a rich and inviting deep red hue. It exudes powerful aromas of ripe blackcurrant and cherry, with subtle underlying notes of tobacco and spice adding complexity. On the palate, it boasts a full-bodied profile with a firm yet refined structure. The acidity offers a bright counterbalance to the wine's fruit-forward character, making each sip lively and engaging. Its tannins are notably firm, providing a substantial backbone that suggests excellent aging potential. The finish is long and satisfying, resonating with lingering flavors of dark fruit and savory hints. This bottling is a testament to the meticulous viticultural and winemaking practices characteristic of this Californian sub-region and is bound to impress with its depth and elegance.

Sonoma County

Many of California's world-class wines come from Sonoma County, separated from Napa by the Mayacamas Mountains. Three times the size of Napa, Sonoma is an incredibly diverse region. Cool coastal zones, fog-cloaked hillsides, sheltered valleys and craggy exposed peaks give Sonoma a vast array of terroirs and microclimates. Its many sub-regions produce a broad range of styles: from the bold Cabernets of Alexander Valley to the fragrant Pinots of Sonoma Coast and the sublime Chardonnays of Chalk Hill.
