Alexander Valley Vineyards Sonoma County Cabernet Sauvignon 2008

 Alexander Valley Vineyards Sonoma County Cabernet Sauvignon 2008 

Medium bodied - pleasurable easy drinking wine, not very complex but showing a predominant layer of sweet oak tinged vanilla and mocha with a hint of anise integrated into the black cherry and dark berry fruit flavors. Very nice complement to the grilled filet of beef with lettuce wedge, blue cheese, red onions and tomato salad at the Grand Cafe at Grand Geneva Resort in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin.

Good value in this modestly priced Sonoma Cabernet generally available for $16-18.

RM 88 points.
