“Roth is a family owned producer, dedicated to crafting Cabernet Sauvignon that is reflective of its origins. In 2000, the first vintage was made from select vineyard sites within the southern most tip of the Alexander Valley AVA. This “sub-appellation’s” abundant hillsides, diverse elevations, aspects and slopes provide a wide range of micro-climates from which Cabernet Sauvignons of intensity and concentrated varietal character are produced. Each vineyard location within this sub-appellation is uniquely blessed with warm days and cool nights, and a longer growing season than other Cabernet-driven appellations. As a result, Roth wines express their rich, ripe flavors with vibrancy and balance.”
78% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Merlot, & 2% Cabernet Franc
My take on this vintage: Typical Sonoma Cab, Deep ink color, Very fruit forward, blackberry, red cherry, plum and cassis, pepper. Easy going wine. Medium Finish. The 2005 had a bit more character, at the +/- $25 price point its a very drinkable wine.
