Note di degustazione
Full bottle 1,335 g. 88% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Petit Verdot. Aged for 22 months in French oak, 70% new. 2,380 cases produced. Fragrant, lively nose. Flattering palate entry with just a little violet perfume but the fruit is slightly dominated by the oak. Just a little stringy on the finish. (JR)

Consumers take note: Barnett's 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Spring Mountain District is more complex and structured than the MMV bottling yet also less expensive. Sage and bay leaf join black cherries and a hint of vanilla on the nose, while the full-bodied palate is soft and easy drinking but with decent backbone and length and plentiful soft, dusty tannins on the finish. The blend includes 12% Petite Verdot.
Lots of smoky oak, chocolate, and mineral-laced red and black fruits define the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon, a medium to full-bodied, nicely balanced, concentrated 2021 with solid tannins and a good finish. It actually might end up being outstanding in a few years, and I suspect it will keep for a decade or more.
The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon is redolent of super-ripe dark fruit, spice, menthol, licorice and chocolate. Mountain tannins give this rich, heady Cabernet Sauvignon quite a bit of character. I would give it a year or two to settle down. Kirsch, cinnamon, new leather and a hint of blood orange linger.
