Robert Keenan Winery

40th Vintage Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2016

Toasty plum and rye with cedar hinting at mascarpone-mint, boasting bright blueberry, dry blackberry and raisin-currant melange; withered hibiscus. Decidedly grape-y on the nose and into a mouthful of red currant, dried cranberries, green tea, pencil, cinnamon bark, savory, plus a salted black plum, and baked cranberry. This one has had oxygen exposure for 7 days, but is still wound up. Hold this one for a ten year minimum in my opinion. It was good yesterday, but better today. It shall not live to see tomorrow. Honestly built and spectacular in the making. #keenan #robertkeenanwinery #keenancab #napacabs #napacab #cab #cabernetsauvignon #cabsauv #sainthelena #springmountaincabernet #springmountaindistrict #springmountain #mountainfruit #mountainwine #sustainablyfarmed #sustainable #solarpoweredwine — 4 years ago

Barnett Vineyards

Spring Mountain District Cabernet Sauvignon 2011

Opaque purple with a ruby rim showing brambley red fruit, crushed violets and cocoa on the nose. Medium bodied and a lighter feminine style mountain cab with tobacco, roasted plum, cassis and baking spices. The finish is dry with grippy tannins and fleshy acidity. #springmountaincabernet — 10 years ago
