A blend of 80% Cab and the rest Merlot, Petit Verdot and Malbec, the 2021 Jordan Alexander Valley Cab is as polished and complex as any Classified Growth Bordeaux yet as true to its Alexander Valley, Sonoma County roots as can be. Now well on its way to maturity, it is showing beautifully: glossy with black-tinged fruit, Kirsch, olive tapenade, blackberry bramble and tarry mineral. Not overdone or over-oaked, it’s seamless, silky and very complex—about as different as you can imagine from some its competition from over the other side of the mountain. Enjoy its understated elegance now or over the next two decades and take yourself back to a time when California Cabernet was aspirational and exciting rather than jaded and overblown. 

James Suckling, 94 points: The nose is slightly restrained and intriguing, with graphite, dried herbs, black cherries, red cherries, anise and stones. The palate is incredibly silky and complete, with rose petals in the finish. A very pretty cabernet that is wonderful now and will reveal more with time. Drink or hold.
