Wow, this is a show stopper! Blueberries, mocha, and deliciously textured.. Nose of a flower garden.. Lovely stuff.

I love this Amici. Pure mountain cabernet on the palate with blackberry, cassis, mild licorice, mountain herb, and grainy/chewy tannins. Need a lot more time. Oak still very prominent. Will integrate with time.

Displays signature mountain fruit intensity. a very elegant delivery, evoking a very expressive St. Estephe, with stony dark fruit, leather, anise, and wild flowers. a very blue chip rather than voluptuous style. Decanted for 2 hours but could easily take another hour plus.

Intense Hillside Cabernet with a great balance of tannins. This one will drink for many more years. Thanks to Bob for sharing your Spring Mountain Masterpiece.

Wow! Robust fruit with mild spice but smooth texture. Complex but humble flavors. Still has some time to reach its peak!

Too early but trying before I buy more. Stellar. Lots of upside. Dark. Sticky. Reminds me of a ‘13 Cor Leonis a little.

Very smooth, but overall Spring Mountain doesn’t do it for me. The notes were subdued, but nothing really special from any other $50 napa Cab from 2015.
