  Meh. Too young. Needs years to really shed the baby fat. Not complex enough, a bit too bright of fruit to tell this is spring mountain. 2 hours of air helped, but it’s still not near its true potential.
  
  Personally, I prefer Pride at 8-10 years old. The characteristics developed are well worth the time invested. This may need the full 10 to really develop its tertiary aromas and flavors.

  From magnum. Medium ruby. At once a very savory and very opulent Cabernet. On the nose this offers aromas of fresh black cherries and dried blackberries complicated by notes of baker's chocolate, baked earth, grilled bread and lavish oak spice. On the palate this is full bodied with medium acidity, notably soft, pliant tannins, a touch of alcoholic heat and crowd-pleasing sweet black fruit and oak flavors. Not the last word in complexity, but this should make the steakhouse bros very, very happy.

  This Pride is a tad young but in its enjoyment window IMO. Subtle but pronounced red and black fruits are well displayed on the aroma and palate. Hints of cigar box and oak compliment this wine and does not overpower it. Feels a tad sharp in the mouth but the alcohol and tannis are in balance. A 1 hour decant will help this to display all of its goodness. Already looking forward to the next swing at this wine perhaps next year.

  I suspect this is a bad bottle or bad cork. Attempted 1 glass and tossed wine
