The 2019 growing season was long and warm, allowing gradual ripening of our estate vineyards and optimal harvest conditions for Bordeaux varietals. This extended maturation resulted in a wine of exceptional purity, depth, and finesse.

Composed of 82% Merlot and 18% Cabernet Franc, the 2019 Aleksander Reserve showcases a luxurious, Merlot-driven core with beautifully integrated structure from Cabernet Franc. The nose reveals captivating aromas of ripe plum, black cherry, and dark raspberry, intertwined with subtle notes of violet, leather, and a hint of warm spice.

On the palate, dense layers of dark fruit unfold with bright acidity and polished, silky tannins, creating a harmonious mouthfeel that is both powerful and refined. Aging for 41 months in French and Serbian oak brings remarkable integration and complexity, culminating in a lingering, elegant finish that highlights the meticulous craftsmanship and timeless character of our estate.
