Swanson Alexis Cabernet Sauvignon

WINEMAKER’S NOTES:

Deep ruby garnet in the glass. Generous dark fruit aromas of cassis, plums and briar. On the palate this is an elegant take on Napa Cabernet Sauvignon, bringing a sophisticated tannin structure alongside a complex core of dark fruits and bright acidity. A touch of earthiness on the mid palate lends balance against the ripe blackcurrant back drop of sustained fruit. This wine will age beautifully over the next 10 years.
