94 Tasting Panel

This current release has settled into a sweet spot where oak, primary fruit, and tannin are all singing in harmony. Savory undertones emerge to lend enduringly intriguing complexities as it warms and breathes in the glass. Neither pushy nor reticent, heavy nor light, this is one of Napa's classiest Cabernets in a vintage that shows it in peak form.

93 Wine & Spirits

You can feel the dappled sunlight in this wine as the flavors shift from warm, sunny forest berries to cool forest-floor tannins. Those beautiful tannins coat the fruit in a drape of dark riches—espresso-roast coffee, redwood tea, smoke and madrone. Stu Smith has been farming the steep slopes of Spring Mountain without irrigation since 1971 (it’s not named Spring Mountain for nothing). This is pretty smart cabernet, especially at the price—a 2019 that should age well.
