Pride Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve 2017
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 2017 is a distinguished red wine sourced from high-elevation estate vineyards on Spring Mountain, where Napa and Sonoma counties meet. Crafted from select blocks on the Napa side, this wine showcases a striking blend of ripe blackcurrant, cherry, and plum notes with underlying hints of cedar, tobacco, and spice. It exhibits a medium to full body, balanced structure, and refined tannins, reflecting the challenges of its growing season. With around 20 months maturation in primarily new French oak, this wine offers immediate appeal while possessing the potential for long-term aging, showcasing its elegance and depth.
