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.

Apr 18th, 2015Very 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.

😳 we’re comparing this and the Spring Mtn cab tonight. Can definitely see the similarities in the fruit, but this is more complex, balanced, and refined for sure.

Oct 23rd, 2020JD 98, RP 97. This is big and structured and beautiful. I may be low. In Florida visiting grandma and there is no way to get temperature right. People in this state have thin blood! The house is 80 degrees!
