Alexander Valley Vineyards Wetzel Family Homestead Red 2019 Review
The alcohol is up front on this wine, with a leathery nose that is a little pruned out. On the palate, the fruit is well done giving the right amount of depth and countering the mild tannic structure. What's nice here is a definite peppery note that breaks up the density of the wine.
