2009 Rattlesnake Hill Cabernet Sauvignon
Spring Mountain District
Deep purple in color the 2009 Rattlesnake is a very serious intense wine. Fresh cassis and mashed flowers fill the nose with beautiful intense vanilla, without being over oaky. Beautiful peppery spices and wet volcanic earth as well as pure cocoa nib play evenly with the fruit. An intensely rich wine the fruit explodes on the palette with ripe pomegranate and concentrated blueberry. More vanilla coats the mountain minerality on the finish of this dynamic wine. Very firm tannins are matched with mountain acidity suggesting long bottle age is in order. Hold for 15-18 years (2026-2029).
