Bedford Alexander Valley Cabernet

Wine Making:

Our Cabernet is picked at the peak of ripeness and brought to the winery during early morning hours. It is destemmed into stainless fermenters where fermentation takes place for 14 days. Wines are racked and pressed off to tanks where we put them down to 50% New French Oak.

Appellation Notes:

Alexander Valley has the largest fluctuation in temperature in Sonoma County, dipping down into the mid 40's at night with a huge spike in temperature in the afternoon making it an ideal climate for Cabernet Sauvignon to show off its fruit character.

Flavor Profile:

A beautiful, vibrant and fruit driven wine with notes of black cherry and plum. This wine is bright, fresh and an excellent food companion.

Smoked Gouda Cheeseburger, Roasted Chicken
