Description: | Napa Valley\r\nWinemaker Notes\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nThe 2021 Spring Mountain Cabernet exhibits the darkest purple that we have ever had on this wine. Blackberry, caramel, and anise jump from the glass. There are beautiful notes of cassis concentrate, cedar, and dark cigar tobacco. The wine has a pretty and silky entry, with more dark berry fruit and cigar box notes. Black cherry and rich dark chocolate are also present on the palate. The tannins are very firm this year, yet chalky and not biting. There is strong mountain acidity to balance the tannins out. The wine has a long cocoa\/nib mocha finish. This big, concentrated Cabernet will age beautifully over the next 14-16 years (2037- 2038).\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nAbout Barnett Winery\r\nHaving grown up in Vancouver and Stockton respectively, Fiona and Hal Barnett became enamored with Napa Valley through frequent visits on the weekends. A vision began to form and they decided to purchase a 40-acre property located at the top of Spring Mountain Road in 1983. The first Cabernet Sauvignon vines were planted the following year with the intent of producing small amounts of hand-crafted wines that would showcase the unique characteristics found in grapes cultivated on such challenging, high elevation terrain. |
