The Alexander Valley has long been one of the premiere regions for growing Cabernet Sauvignon in the world. Warm days and cool nights during the ripening season are coupled with sandy, well-drained soils to deliver top-quality Cabernet grapes. Jim Rickards has farmed grapes in the Alexander Valley since 1976 and this deliciously complex wine perfectly reflects four decades of his efforts and expertise. Intense aromas of summer blackberry and vanilla spice lead to lush flavors of ripe plum and berry pie filling. A delicious and versatile choice for any occasion!
