  This was a terrific bottle shared at an old wine dinner towards the end of the evening. A harmonious mix of blackberry, cherry, and mocha notes with a hint of oak. Nicely integrated and lingering finish. Popped and poured and it got better as the night wore on. I have one more bottle that I will wait on for a few more years. Really great stuff.

  Bright, clear purple in color. Light, floral perfume on the nose. Black raspberry, blueberry, sour cherry, a hint of cola on the palate. Almost fully integrated tannins. This has become a bit lighter and more nuanced with age. Still requires several hours to reveal its complexity.

  Classic Spring Mountain fruit. Blackberry, blueberry and sour cherry balanced with a bit of leather and baking spice.

  A fabulous Spring Mtn offering that just gets better with age. Big, full floral nose. Deep, opaque, ruby in color. Black raspberry, sour cherry, mocha and a hint of oak on the palate. Full bodied with a long lingering finish.

  Last taste in 2015. Still a perfect cabernet. Went well with grilled filet mignon. Still ready to drink. Perhaps at peak, and, plenty of bottle life left.
