Decoy Limited Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2022 Review
This is one of the most quality-driven examples of this variety at this price point. The nose says, Cab with dark fruits and slight hints of pepper. The palate is very balanced and has a nice full depth of fruit without sacrificing some nice subtleties like, more of that peppery fruit and good supportive natural acidity.
