Newton Spring Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon 2016 750ml

In a word, Elegant. The original Estate property purchased in 1977, this mature vineyard is now planted to red Bordeaux varieties exclusively. Of the propertys 489 acres, only 75 are planted to vines. At an altitude ranging from 5001600 feet, it features a complex combination of both sedimentary and volcanic soils as well as diverse, moderately fertile and well-drained conditions. On Spring Mountain, a refined, red fruit character reigns, typically expressed in this wine as a distinct pomegranate note. The spicy nose entices with sage, thyme and rosemary lifted by floral aromas of violet perfume and red flowers. The wine is concentrated but the structure is subtle, elegantly underpinning the aromatic high tones with layered texture.
