Pride Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve 2018
The Winery
Pride Mountain
Nestled in the Mayacamas Mountains between St. Helena and Santa Rosa, the picturesque 235 acre estate of Pride Mountain Vineyards produces unique wines in contrast to those made in the neighboring valleys. The vineyards are set above the fog line, which enables the grapes to be exposed to California's hot sun from dawn to dusk. As a result, the flavors of these wines tend to be rich with ripe black fruits, "balance, nuance, and complexity." They are made to be approachable at a young age with the capability to age beneficially for 10-15 years. Cheers to Pride Mountain wines!
Summary
The Pride Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve 2018 is a distinguished wine from the celebrated Pride Mountain Vineyards, located on the Napa/Sonoma border. Crafted from a selective barrel selection, this wine is predominantly Cabernet Sauvignon (94%) with a touch of Petit Verdot (6%), aged for about 20 months in new French oak. The 2018 vintage benefits from a favorable growing season, resulting in a powerful, medium to full-bodied profile. Aromas of black cherry, plum, and cassis are complemented by notes of leather, spice, and mocha. With integrated acidity and robust tannins, this wine promises excellent aging potential, making it a noteworthy choice for collectors.
