1980 Jordan Winery Cabernet Sauvignon, Alexander Valley, USA

The oldest wine we have in the store from Alexander Valley and in perfect condition this wine was just acquired from a private collection and we recently showed it at the wine bar.  It has a beautiful bouquet of dried herbs, currant and plum fruit still present with cigar box spice and some fresh earth showing, lovely evolution here and still quite lively.  Silky smooth tannins on the tongue with a good amount of evolution but still has nice fruit and a long layered finish, an excellent example of a fully mature Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon.  Finish 45+  Excellent +
