Tasting notes
As valley floor fruit typically is, the Spring Street Cabernet is immediately aromatic upon popping the cork. Blueberry pie and pomegranate pop from the glass surrounded by cedar, black Ucorice and cinnamon dove spices. The Merlot flushes out the palate allowing the wine to be silky and rich. There is a long finish on this wine, it is approachable in its youth but will age nicely over the next 7-8 years. Produced from 83% Cabernet Sauvignon & 17% Merlot, this wine was aged for 22 months in French Oak Barrels, 76% new and 24% two to four year old barrels. Only 380 cases produced.
