Dramatic geological activity has created numerous soil types and microclimates allowing Simi Winery to select from a diverse range of vineyard sources for wines of distinct flavor, texture and character. Simi Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon is created by keeping each vineyard block separate throughout the winemaking process. Winemaker Steve Reeder selects the best vineyard lots for the final blend. The complexity of this wine is created not only from our vineyard sites, but also from blending with other classic Bordeaux varietals. This unique combination of vineyard sites and varietals result in a wine that is both powerful and elegant, with Alexander Valley's signature luscious, velvety tannins. (hide)
