The first release of this cuvee for Vineyard 7&8. A complex Cabernet from Spring Mountain fruit blended with some fruit from Oakville. Drinking very well now and will only get better with more cellaring.

9.8

The Two Terroirs Spring Mountain
Cabernet comes from some of the oldest vineyards on Spring Mountain. Complex aromatics with lovely red and black fruit flavors. The finish is long and the tannins well integrated, not easy to achieve with mountain fruit. At $60.00 bottle this wine delivers the goods and is underpriced. It will cellar a another decade easily

Something different along the lines of a nice Beaujolais. Serve it lightly chilled. Not a wine to ponder but one to enjoy with simply prepared foods. — 11 years ago
