Country: US / California
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon
Winery: Medlock Ames / Bell Mountain Vineyard
From the winery’s estate Bell Mountain ranch, a stretch of vineyard that reaches through Alexander Valley to the Russian River Valley, this is mostly Cabernet Sauvignon, blended with Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. Tight in cranberry and puckering oak, it needs to air before enjoying.
