Alexander Valley was shaped by dramatic geologic activity—from an ancient landslide that changed the course of the Russian River, to earthquake upheavals that redistributed whole sections of land. The incredible diversity of soil types and microclimates produces wines with the velvety textures and bright, luscious flavors. Simi Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon reflects the best of Alexander Valley’s bright fruit characters and elegance that made this world-class growing region famous.

Along with the complexity created by the different soil types and topography, we have planted a diverse selection of varieties and clones. Besides the nine different clones of Cabernet Sauvignon, we have planted Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petite Verdot and Malbec, the "big five" classic varieties from Bordeaux.

Simi Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon is created by keeping all of our diverse vineyard blocks separate throughout the winemaking process. This allows the winemaker to select the best vineyard lots for the final blend. The blend is created over a two year period by selecting the best barrels from the most intense lots. The complexity of this wine is created not only from our vineyards sites, but also from blending with other classic Bordeaux varietals.
