Wine Description:
Rattlesnake Hill, located on the estate, sits at an elevation exceeding 2,000 feet in the Mayacamas Mountains above St. Helena. As expected from Spring Mountain Cabernets, this wine offers a strikingly robust and structured profile. Crafted exclusively from Cabernet Sauvignon, it delivers classic varietal notes of black currants, cherries, licorice, and spices, while the influence of predominantly new French oak imparts a delightful smoky wood essence. Although highly enjoyable with decanting, especially when paired with hearty dishes like steak, this wine is anticipated to gracefully evolve over the next decade or more.
Pros:
  • Rich and complex flavor profile

Cons:
  • May require some aging to fully develop its potential
