Pech Merle 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon (Alexander Valley)

Country: US /
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon California
Winery: Pech Merle / Alexander Valley

Very ripe in blackberries and cherries, with a nice coating of toasty oak, with a long, spicy finish. The texture is a bit aggressive, with sandpapery tannins. Doesn’t seem like an ager, so drink now–2015.
