1997 Optima Alex Valley

[winoweenie]

!00 percentage-poo Cabernet from Alex Valley. Medium ruby with slight bricking at the rim. Gorgeousses-killer-nose that was floral dominated with some nice red fruits , spices, and cedar notes. Good entry, solid center, and a 4 lapper finish. Shows the subtly associated with the best Alex vineyards. Maybe at TTOIG. Solid 90/88. 40 by the box. 14.1% alc . WW

You hung onto that one slightly longer than the '91 we enjoyed in '01.
