Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

Blend of mostly Cabernet Sauvignon with Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot & Malbec, deep Ruby with aromas of berry fruits with spice, herb and earthy notes. On the palate flavors of blackberry, ripe cherry, fig and blueberry compote with currants, cacao, pepper and earthy notes. Fine soft tannins, good structure, long finish, great mouthfeel, ending with cedar, fruit and earthy character. Wonderful! Very Nice.

Cherry, forrest floor, moss. Aging beautifully.

Amazing wine, so alive and integrated. Perfumed and balanced with great harmony and length. Classic Napa mountain cabernet profile, richly textured but still maintaining structural posture and elegance. Seems like it could keep going too. Love the depth and core of fruit it still has

Pam’s birth year wine. Still plenty of complexity to enjoy. Talking about both my wife and the wine.

Napaulée at Press Restaurant. Lovely

Fruit still well in-tact. Completely resolved. Very high fill, pristine bottle. Complexity fell just shy of making this an absolute treasure.

Still youthful, tannin and acidity well integrated. Really consistent portfolio from Spring Mountain.

Great story behind the wine. And she is holding up extremely well. Sous bios with a hint of VA complement the red cherry fruit and forest floor. 87s turning out to challenge 85/86, and a shade behind 84.

A great bottle. Powerful, dense and textured. Easily 10 more years ahead.
