Architect 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon Alexander Valley

The Architect 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon from California's Alexander Valley is a modern red that balances bold character with smooth drinkability. This medium-bodied blend is composed of 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Petit Verdot, 5% Cabernet Franc, 5% Merlot, and 3% Malbec. It offers lush dark berry flavors, including black cherry, cassis, and ripe plum, complemented by subtle notes of vanilla, cocoa, and spice. The wine's silky tannins and long, balanced finish make it versatile for both sipping and pairing.

Crafted from vines aged 10–15 years and fermented in stainless steel before aging in oak, this wine showcases the depth and elegance of Alexander Valley fruit. With an alcohol content of 14.5%, it pairs well with dishes like grilled lamb, roasted duck, or mushroom risotto.

Made by Broadbent Selections.

Michael Broadbent trained as an architect before he became a winemaker
in England in the 1960s. He knew the importance of structure, balance and
beauty well before becoming a Master of Wine. His large legacy of art,
whether it be architectural, portraiture, landscapes or technical drawings,
gives a clear insight into his attention to detail. This wine is a tribute to the
legacy of our favorite Renaissance man - Michael Broadbent, artist, author,
musician, auctioneer and architect.
