2007 Alpha Omega Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
SKU #500457
Color is deep, dark black cherry with touches of blueberry jam and ruby on the rim. On the nose there's notes of black pepper, cayenne pepper, cigar box, camp fire, violet, clay and granite rock balanced by blackberry, blueberry, black currant, genadine and red licorice. On the palate the wine is soft and fresh fruit entrance evolving on integrated and powerful velvety tannins balanced with a silky mouth feel with touches of dark cherry, strawberry, violet and rose petals lingering on wild blackberry, cassis and fresh plum.

Cabernet Sauvignon 80% Cabernet Franc 8% Petit Verdot 8% . Early bud-break and a mild, nearly perfect summer resulted in an early start to 2007 harvest. A heat spike in September pushed sugars high and hurried wineries to harvest their grapes. The weather then turned cool and harvest slowed down to give us great complexity. Rain hit the north coast in late September and early October which caused many winemakers to get the remaining fruit picked as soon as possible, but we held back. We decided to let the fruit hang. It was a large risk, but it paid off because the rain was followed by 3 weeks of great weather which yielded some amazing flavors and balance.
