Note di degustazione
The 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon Spring Mountain, which comes from a high-elevation site on Spring Mountain, shows telltale floral notes mixed with blueberry and raspberry fruit. All from sedimentary, volcanic soils, it is fresh, lively and probably the most finesse-styled of this quartet of brilliant Cabernet Sauvignons fashioned by winemaker Chris Carpenter. Unfortunately, production was virtually nothing – 113 cases.

Deep ruby. Aromas of blackberry, licorice and bitter chocolate. Sweet black fruit flavors are complicated by mocha, tobacco and pepper, with oakiness growing as the wine opened in the glass. I find this a bit overripe/underripe in character. Boasts good stuffing but finishes with slightly gritty tannins and a faint greenness.
