Simi Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2017 Tasting Notes
The color is a dark raspberry jam red with black highlights. The nose smells expensive, I know that is sort of a weird thing to say, but with inexpensive Cabs, the first aroma is usually fruit, here it is herbs and spice with blackberry lingering in the background, along with a smokey, savory note, bitter dark chocolate, and mint.
This is a medium-bodied wine that really engages your palate and exhibits excellent balance. It tastes of extracted blackberry, black pepper, sharp spice, dark roast coffee , and soft blueberry.
The mid-palate adds a soft dusty tannins, a little French vanilla, strawberry, and a slightly rough-edged spice. The tannins are in control and add to the flavor profile. The acidity allows the flavors to unfold and provides a solid backbone while never getting in the way.

There are very few people in the wine world who “get it” and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.

Verkostungsnotizen Fr Simi Landslide Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2017
SIMI 2017 Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon hat eine tiefrote Farbe mit einem lebendigen rubinroten Rand. Erdige Cassis und hochtonige rote Früchte umrahmen und verleihen Noten von dunkler Kirsche und Brombeere Tiefe, verleihen Großzügigkeit, Schichten und aromatische Komplexität. Schwarze Frucht dominiert den Einstieg. Auf Brombeere und dunkle Pflaume folgen schwarzes Lakritz und Kakao mit einem fleischigen Gaumen. Saftige Säure und kräftige Tannine führen den Abgang an.
Unser Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon ist elegant, saftig und unglaublich lebensmittelfreundlich und kein Rätsel, mit dem er kombiniert werden kann. Es bringt das Beste aus gegrillten Steaks mit gebratenen Pilzen, marokkanisch gewürztem Lamm und geschmorter Entenbrust mit Karottenpüree.
