Smith Madrone, Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley, 2021

The wine opens with a luxurious yummy blue-black/red fruit aroma, which manages to be floral and peppery, bright and lively, fetching and intriguing all at once. On the palate the wine is packed with fruit. While medium weight the wine has a creamy lush mid-palate that is surprisingly full-bodied and mouth filling. Pleasantly grippy at the finish, this wine is built for the long run but as it stands now would be the perfect accompaniment for steak night. Our Spring Mountain pedigree insures deliciously integrated tannins and a long life-span. For fifty years our wines have been sourced from the same vineyards, pruned, cultivated and harvested in the same manner, creating artisanal wines which are distinctive and complex.
