Loaded up front with bright fruit redolent of blueberry, plum and black cherry. An attractive tangy edge gives lift, while toasty oak rounds things off. Though light-textured, the wine still carries plenty of weight and is lovely and long to the end. A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Malbec from Alexander Valley Vineyards.——J.M.(6/1/2002)—— 91
