Blackberry, fig paste, dark chocolate, leather. Great grip. Nice finish. Steal of a deal for a Spring Mountain Cab!

Cherry cola, raspberry, blackberry, vanilla, plum, licorice, oak and hints of eucalyptus. Good structure and soft tannins.

The medium-dark wine really has a powerful nose, or maybe I should say an “expressive” one. The dark fruit is draped in earth and minerals and some of the more lovely holiday spice and pencil-lead notes that I've run across lately. On the palate, the fruit tastes “grown up” instead of candied - savory instead of sweet. The tannic structure is firm yet fanciful, the mouthfeel flinty yet filigree. The wine will pair wonderfully with a steak or a pork chop, but it's a great sipper, too.

This is well done. Vibrant mountain fruit. Rather old world in its attributes. Would love to try it in 10 years.

A bit of a rarity.
Nice, but was better a few years ago. We shall see how the evening progresses

A wine of many great parts but not quite satisfying the part of my palate craving balance. A good example of a wine that really needs a rib-eye to enjoy with

I can appreciate this wine but stylistically it doesn't ring my bell. I'm pretty sure there was a waft of Bret that turned me off.
