PART TWO OF OUR SALUTE TO THE REGION’S WINE LEADERS
The Alexander Valley Winegrowers association is gearing up to present one of its most successful educational outreach programs for the trade this spring: the Alexander Valley Cab Academy. The SOMM Journal is a proud media sponsor, and our own senior wine editor, Jessie Birschbach, will serve as a “camp counselor.”
As a tribute to this region, home to 32 wineries and 77 vineyards, we will highlight noteworthy selections that represent it in its best light over the course of the next two issues. Additionally, we will explore how Cabernets from different districts of the narrow, 20-mile-long and 8-mile-wide AVA vary in style. These districts are, from north to south, Cloverdale, Geyserville, Jimtown, Healdsburg, and Maacama.
