Tasting note:

Vintages Wine Panel: The Alden Vineyard sits at 1,200 feet (365 metres) above sea level. The location’s cooler temperatures and shorter growing season means smaller berries come picking time, resulting in flavors that are highly concentrated. As a result, the wine achieves an elegant balance between pure fruit flavors, acidity and tannin. Dark fruit and spice notes typify this high altitude Cab which can be enjoyed now or aged for up to 10 years. My note: A whopping big wine with aromas of mocha and blackberries

Yes, I'm a certified sommelier and was named the World's Best Wine Writer at the World Food Media Awards. Blah, blah, blah. What really matters is that I know which wines can increase your hedonistic happiness... a lot. Don't worry, spam doesn't pair well with wine!
