Smooth tannins, yet good structure. Luscious, delicious Spring Mountain Cab that is not a typical big California Cab. Should age quite well.

I've usually loved the Riesling from these guys in fact I love there Riesling more than the Cabs - this one seems like it went through a M-l little butter - much nicer in the mouth still not my favorite vintage

Tried at Napa Green Panel with Stu Smith winemaker. Very nice. Oak but super clean and non buttery.
