Spring Mountain District Estate Cabernet Sauvignon
Spring Mountain District, Napa Valley, California, USA
Still a behemoth at 7 years. Very nice sense of place. Tell tale spring mountain fruit--like Barnett rattlesnake or Keenan. Similar to Togni but less nuanced.

Loads of aroma and flavor, complex notes of black currants and cassis, some loam and licorice with a touch or tar. Fresh on the palate the oak is wells managed and seamlessly integrated, very good acidity. #lotstolike #lotsofpleasure #springmountain

Dec 9th, 2016Lost their winery in the fires yesterday... fortunately everyone ok...this an old post but I stand by it as the most underrated wine in Napa...
My deathbed wine. '07 Sherwin. Layers of blackberry, maple syrup, vanilla, tons of fruit, long finish, lot of heat, but just right to me.
