With a deep dark purple core the 2022 Spring Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon shows its youth. Black cherry, raspberry and cassis are the predominant aromatics. Where tobacco/cigar box and dark volcanic earth are underpinning elements. The wine has a nice soft entrance where darker berry fruit is on the palate matched with dark chocolate and cedar. The tannins are chalky but softer than previous vintages, where the mountain acidity is matching. There is a beautiful long black cherry finish. This lovely wine is showing very well in its youth, but will age nicely over the next 9-10 years (2033-2034).
