Medlock Ames Bell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon Alexander Valley

California

Alexander Valley

The 2020 Bell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon, with 4% Petit Verdot in the blend, is deep garnet-purple in color. Black cherries, mulberries, and juicy blackcurrants spring from the glass leading to hints of candied violets, camphor, and tar. The medium to full-bodied palate has a firm, chewy texture and just enough freshness to support the generous fruit, finishing earthy.

The 2022 Bell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon is composed of 86% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Malbec, 4% Cabernet Franc, and 3% Merlot. Deep garnet-purple colored, notes of juicy blueberries and black raspberries hop from the glass, plus suggestions of dried herbs, cinnamon stick and dusty soil. The full-bodied palate vibrates with energetic black and blue fruit flavors, highlighted by herbal accents and framed with firm tannins, finishing with a refreshing lift.

The 2021 Bell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon is composed of 76% Cabernet Sauvignon, 13% Cabernet Franc, 9% Merlot, and 2% Malbec. Deep garnet-purple in color, it leaps with vibrant notes of crushed black and red currants, black raspberries, and fragrant soil plus hints of Ceylon tea and dusty soil. The medium to full-bodied palate is refreshing, pure, and plush textured, with layers of black and red fruits and a mineral lift on the finish.
