Wine Description
First produced in 1983, Geyer Peak Reserve Alexandre is a
traditional blend of five classic Bordeaux red grape varietals. Each
year, winemaker Mick Schroeter relies on traditional, small-lot
fermentation, rigorous selection and extensive trial blending to
achieve a consistently stylish, elegantly balanced wine.
51% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, 19% Malbec, 4% Petite Verdot, 1% Cabernet Franc
Smooth, rich and silky, this handcrafted wine finds its center around a deep core
of black currant, black cherry and raspberry fruit. Spice, cedar and earth notes add complexity, but
it's the generous fruit and supple texture that anchor the mid-palate. Aiming for elegance over
brawn, this voluptuous wine finishes with ripe tannins and a luxurious aftertaste that keeps on
going. Overall, the 2004 Reserve Alexandre is a quintessential example of Alexander Valley terroir
and of the region's supreme suitability for nurturing Bordeaux varieties.
