Wine Expert Note:

Cardinale Red is a highly acclaimed wine known for its exceptional quality and elegance. On the nose, Cardinale Red offers enticing aromas of dark fruits such as blackberry and black cherry, accompanied by hints of spice, cedar, and tobacco. These aromas continue to evolve and become more pronounced as the wine opens up. The palate of Cardinale Red is rich and full-bodied, with velvety tannins that provide a smooth and luxurious mouthfeel. Flavors of ripe black fruits, including blackcurrant and plum, dominate the palate, complemented by notes of vanilla, chocolate, and a touch of earthiness. The wine displays excellent structure and depth, with a long and lingering finish that leaves a lasting impression. It is a wine that can be enjoyed now, but also has the potential to age gracefully.

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.

The Colgin IX Estate Red is a remarkable blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Petit Verdot, crafted from grapes grown on the renowned IX Estate Vineyard in the Oakville region of Napa Valley. This full-bodied red wine has a deep, brooding nose of leather, dark fruits, and cedar, with hints of licorice and graphite. On the palate, the wine is ripe and plush, with a core of dark berry and black cherry flavors, framed by a lively acidity and fine-grained tannins. The finish is long, with notes of toasted oak, baking spices, and mineral accents. This is a powerful, complex wine that will reward cellar aging.
