2019 Swanson Vineyards Alexis Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley, 750ml
1 bottle
Striking in appearance, with a dark ruby color, this vintage of Alexis is immediately seductive. On the nose, ripe red fruits mingle with cocoa, plum and a touch of vanilla. Robust tannins fill out the palate making this a candidate for long term aging. The palate flavors are dark fruits, slight wet clay note, some espresso bean and a touch of dark chocolate. All this is held together within a firm acidity, retaining freshness and structure. The wine possesses the quality that we consistently strive for – layers of nuance, rich texture, and a persistent finish.

2019 Swanson Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon, Rutherford, 750ml
1 bottle
An age worthy classic, this wine will continue to reveal it's myriad layers of complexity over the next 20 years. For now, a deep opaque purple in the glass, displaying aromas of wild sage, dark cherry, violet and cassis. The tannins are firm and support the intense mid palate of fruit in this wine. The acidity is dialed back, so as not to accentuate the tannins, it provides and backbone to wine, giving freshness to each sip. The flavor profile starts with a dried herb note, moving into ripe dark plum before heading in another direction towards cigar box and cedar, interesting, complex and highly enjoyable.
