Mount Eden Vineyards
Santa Cruz Mountains Cabernet Sauvignon
Santa Cruz Mountains, San Francisco Bay, California, USA
The 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon is going to need a number of years to come around. The only question is how many. In 2017, the Mount Eden Cabernet is shockingly opulent. Inky black fruit, bittersweet chocolate, spice, leather and incense are all dialed up in this super-sized Cabernet. Even so, there is plenty of structure lurking beneath. I can't wait to see how this ages. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, May 2022)

Aug 18th, 20232017 vintage. No smoke taint. Classically structured except on the back end/finish that lacks grip. Still very nice. Quality markers throughout that bump this up to where it is. Not their best vintage, yet super solid.
