2021 Lapostolle Cuvee Alexandre Cabernet Sauvignon
$23.99 USD
Winemaker Notes
Intense, deep red color with purple edges. Expressive and intense nose with cassis and black currant aromas. Elegant palate with round and persistent tannins, with fresh cherry along with a light toast flavor.
Pair with high flavoring dishes as lamb shank with herbs or pork fillet with mustard and honey.
Blend: 85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Cabernet Franc, 4% Merlot, 4% Petit Verdot

Rated 94 Points James Suckling
"An elegant and pretty complex expression with an array of red and black cherries, grilled spices, tapenade and roasted red pepper. Some firm, nicely chewy tannins on the medium- to full-bodied palate gives a tight structure to the juicy fruit. Dialled back and fresh. Shows the angular tannins from the granitic soils."
