Tasting notes:

This vintage of Crazy Creek orchestrates what Alexander Valley Cabernet is known for. Aromas of ripe blackberry, fleshy plum, bay leaf and black olive are typical for this wine. On the palate, soft tannins cannot impede flavors of wild berry, red plum and cassis with subtle hints of bittersweet chocolate.

Winemaking notes:

The grapes were hand-harvested and fermented with D-254 yeast in stainless steel tanks.
