GV | $39 |2019 Mount Veeder Cabernet Sauvignon
Description
Mount Veeder is a winery located in the Mayacamas Mountains. It was started by Michael and Arlene Bernstein in the early 1970’s. The vines, ranging from 1,000–1,600 feet in elevation, cling to rugged, steep slopes that offer cool conditions that lead to slow ripening, which extends the growing season. Mount Veeder is usually the last to harvest in Napa Valley. The result is fruit with highly concentrated flavors – big, bold and brambly – a Cabernet Sauvignon lover’s feast.
“Ripe and fresh, with sassafras, sweet bay leaf and savory details that lead into a juicy, compact core of cassis and dark plum compote flavors. The modestly toasty finish lets the fruit and savory sides play out, while acidity and tannins underscore everything.”
-Wine Spectator, 92 Points
“Aromas of black plum, blackberry, fig and ripe cherry, framed by toasted oak and caramel. A hint of dried herb and floral notes. The concentrated fruit flavors and integrated tannins introduce a rich, full-body structure. Sweet fruit is balanced with acidity and savory notes of leather and wet stone, ending with a lengthy finish of dark berry, baking spice, and mocha.”
