From the winemaker: "deLorimier Winery has been practicing sustainable farming techniques for many years. It has been Ken & Diane Wilson’s goal to achieve sustainability for the resulting quality wines along with a commitment to the environment for the benefit of future generations. Our sustainable practices are realized in many forms, but primarily through water conservation, recycling, use of organic growing practices including encouraging pest control through attracting raptors in our vineyards."

 

TASTING NOTES: Showing off a full body and gorgeous deep crimson color, this Alexander Valley Cabernet presents a delicate nose of dusty violets, dried tobacco and buttery butterscotch. A mellow flavor profile, this lovely wine shows off dried tobacco leaf and violet with a touch of cassis. It offers juicy acidity with medium tannins, and a pleasant light spiciness on the finish. The finish shows off great lasting power.

FOOD PAIRINGS: Enjoy with a succulent, wine and garlic marinated tri-tip!
