Spring Mountain District, Napa Valley
2006 Cabernet Sauvignon
Deep intense red color / lush aromas of rich very ripe grapes - chocolatey. A big big wine on the palate; lots and lots of fruit on front with a lot of tannins forming a backbone. $38.00
2006 Cabernet Sauvignon
Wurtele Vineyard
Dark, dark richness of color with a deep purple flash at the edges of the glass. Aromas of dried pears and apricots dipped in chocolate lead to a well balanced, but very rich, fruity wine. The tannins are soft and well integrated into a concentrated wine. $60.00
Two wines in the current style: very contemporary style with lots of fruit forward flavors, lots of tannin and plenty of alcohol. Both will improve for about 5 years.
