Dark garnet color. Plum, blackberry, mocha and herbs on the palate. Full bodied but medium depth of flavor. Nicely integrated tannins. This is really a nice bottle of wine and typical of Spring Mountain. Be cognizant that this requires at least two hours of air to open up.

spectacular cab ready now. decanted for 30 minutes and it got better over the next two hours. previous notes by others are spot on. I have one left. CA cab as it should be- well balanced and not so over extracted as to overpower food pairing - in my case prime rib

Most recent notes nailed this one. My lone bottle purchased at auction. This was fabulous and I got the chance to taste it over three days. It was the best on day two. Really wonderful bottle that had smooth classic Spring Mtn Cab notes. Based on this bottle, I will likely seek out more at a reasonable price. Hit a really good spot on the palate with red and black fruit along with creme de cassis. Great effort here.

My final bottle, from a magnum. Nice tannic grip. Plenty of blue fruit mixed with spice notes. Long finish.
