Alpha Omega 2006 Proprietary Red Wine Red (Napa Valley)

Country: US / Proprietary Red Wine
Variety: Bordeaux-style Red Blend California
Winery: Alpha Omega / Napa Valley

This is a big, powerful Bordeaux blend that clearly needs time. Tasted in early 2009, it’s very tannic and dry, although you can detect the massive cassis and plum flavors. It would be a pity to open before 2012, if you can keep your hands off it. Could eventually stun. Alpha Omega is a winery to watch.
