Rodney Strong Alexander's Crown Single Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2013

A famous wine from the early days of The Wine Advocate, the 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Alexander's Crown Single Vineyard comes from a lower elevation of 250 to 360 feet. The wine displays broad, sweet crème de cassis, black cherry and blueberry fruit, some licorice, graphite, a full-bodied mouthfeel, and outstanding length and purity. This is a beauty, and makes me think back to the great 1974, which was the first one I remember tasting. Drink Date: 2016-2036. Score - 94. (Robert Parker Jr., robertparker.com, March 3, 2016 )
