There is still structure to the wine

Grape acidity was initially high

and structured—that highlights the grace and intensity possible from Spring Mountain

2018 Cabernet Franc Proprietary the wine shows dusty notesCabernet Franc has always excelled on the slopes of Spring Mountain and in a year like 2018 the Cabernet Franc shines even brighter. Aromas of cola, wild cherries and violets reveal themselves along with more complex nuances of spice and fennel. Hints of dusty earth and toast suggest a present, but balanced, oak profile. On the palate, the wine exhibits bright red currants, plums, and raspberries. Darker notes of cassis and sage linger on the finish.
