2012 Charles Krug - Cabernet Sauvignon Limited Release Cold Springs Vineyard

The inky/ruby/purple-tinged 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon Limited Release Cold Springs (only 225 cases produced) comes from a west-facing vineyard planted at 1,650 feet. It reveals notes of charcoal, barbecue smoke, blackberries, blackcurrants, spice and earth in a medium to full-bodied format. Supple, round and concentrated, it is an intriguing, promising Cabernet that can be drunk early or over the next 15+ years.
