Roth 2007 cabernet sauvignon Alexander Valley

[WIP]

A no named 2010 Cab Rose' from Texas. Not very good, but I know what not to do this year. This stuff will be served ICE COLD and never served to wine people. lol

Roth 2007 cabernet sauvignon Alexander Valley

What did you think? Alexander Valley used to be my favorite region for wine - they still produce some knockouts, but either my tastes are changing or their quality is slipping, because my rock-steadies aren't so much any more.

CHATEAU DOULEY 2006 PREMIÈRES CÔTES DE BORDEAUX - fabulous. I don't know that I've had a Bordeaux I haven't enjoyed.

Cupcake Red Wine - WHY do I do this to myself? Not bad if you aren't paying attention.

It was a good wine. A little tannic and one-dimensional but it was pleasant. I haven't had too much wine from Alexander Valley but I've also enjoyed Simi and Alexander Valley Vineyards.

Wines like this usually don't show too much variation but I thought the 2007 was a little softer and more fruit-forward which is what I was going for last night. Both went well with gourmet SloppyJoes.
