"The Calling" Alexander Valley 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon, $24.99-$32.99, 90 points, poured a deep red with maroon flashes grading bright purple/red toward the broad clear wine ring and leggy glass wall.
Smells of black currant and other black fruit with anise and plum were good.
Near full-bodied with good acidity and appropriately supportive tannin managed flavors reflective of the nose accented by blueberry and cedar notes.
Finished long on warm spices and the 14.5% alcohol.
At $25, this Cabernet has a high QPR.
