Our marquee wine, a true reflection of the best of the Alexander Valley, earns its stripes in a number of ways. More…

There are few places better suited for Cabernet Sauvignon than the Alexander Valley, which is why it's become our signature wine. More…

Anyone who thinks Merlot is a lightweight has never tried this one. The 2007 is a well-structured wine with the kind of characteristics often ascribed to Cabernet. More…

The man who laid the foundation for Alexander Valley Vineyards is also the man most responsible for having a Pinot Noir in our portfolio. More…

It may seem a little unusual to find Sangiovese planted in Sonoma's wine country where varietals from Cabernet Sauvignon to Chardonnay thrive. More…

Every time we release another 2007 wine, we are amazed at what a truly great vintage it was. If you are looking for more evidence, just uncork a bottle of the 2007 Estate Syrah. More…

We've nicknamed this wine "Original Sin." It's a reference to the fact that long before the advent of quirky names for Zinfandel, we at AVV decided a playful and unique name was fitting for our Alexander Valley Zin. More…

When we added Temptation to our family of Zins, we wanted to show how the grape California has adapted as its own can wear many faces. More…

Original Sin is in the Alexander Valley. You must trek to Dry Creek for Redemption. Of course we are talking Zinfandel here, as in Sin Zin, our signature Zin, and Redemption Zin, the wonderfully lush companion. More…

At Alexander Valley Vineyards, we've always valued great Cabernet Franc for the qualities it adds when blended into wines like our Estate Cabernet Sauvignon and CYRUS. More…

There are folks who like a velvety, lush Merlot. And then there are those who prefer the gumption of a Syrah. More…

Grenache is truly an undiscovered pleasure. Though it's one of the most widely planted varietals around the globe, Grenache is not something most people request when they gaze at the wine list at their favorite restaurant or visit their local wine merchant. More…

The accolades keep pouring in for this wine. First, Decanter Magazine gave it 5 Stars, rating it one of the top two California Cabernets from the 2006 vintage. More…

This new wine was created using an old technique. Instead of aging the wine in the more conventional 60 gallon barrels, 92 gallon barrels were used. More…

If there is one varietal that defines the Dry Creek Valley, it is Zinfandel. Long hours of sunshine tempered by coastal fogs that settle in at night create the perfect environment for growing great Zin. More…

When we set out to make a new Alexander School Rhone blend, one of the guiding principals was to make a wine that truly exhibited a sense of place, that concept the French call terroir. More…

This wine is special on a number of fronts. For one, it hails from a great vintage. Pretty much every varietal, but particularly the Bordeaux varietals, really shined in 2007 here in the Alexander Valley. More…

This 2009 Estate Chardonnay is clearly distinctive. It isn't overoaked nor is it stripped bare. Instead. More…

One of the lessons we've learned over nearly a half century of grape growing is that there are certain varietals that are perfect for the Alexander Valley and there are others that are best left to other appellations. More…

Ask any grower what grape is most beligerant and they are likely to answer Viognier. Ask them what grape is most rewarding and many will offer the same answer. More…
