The tannins on this have softened nicely although it’s still pretty big. I get cocoa and cherry over tobacco with a touch of baking spice. — 3 months ago
So delicious!!!! A perfect balance of ripe (almost jammy) red and black fruit, licorice spice, and vanilla alongside sweet baking spice.
On the palate, it’s dry with medium(+) acidity, a medium(+) body, high alcohol, and medium tannins that are ripe and soft. — 5 months ago

Deep Ruby with aromas of rich berry fruit, floral and complex spice, 76% Cab Sauvignon, 22% Malbec & 3% Petite Verdot . On the palate flavors of blackberry and blueberry with floral spice, integrated vanilla oak and earthy cinnamon. Fine soft tannins, long finish ending with fruit, spice, vanilla oak and soft earthy notes, will still develop! A nice fillet mignon with Cabernet gravy will go well. — 7 months ago
2021 vintage. Mount Veeder used to (generally) be a mountain fruit pushover until the last two decades. That has changed. Mt. Brave been killing it for some time and this is no exception. A token trace of richness up front but quickly swept into mid and post-palate tannins. Grippy but not overtly so. 10.09.24. — a month ago

Blackberry, rich, ripe, dare I say still quite primary fruit, some mountain structure peaks through, nice balance, long finish, needs many more years of aging!! — a month ago
