The 2016 Spring Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon is deep purple to the core. Blueberry pie, cloves and black plum jump from the glass. The nose is also filled with anise, cedar and black pepper. The velvety mouthfeel is complemented by a range of dark berry fruit, pepper spice and cocoa. The tannins are wonderfully balanced, chalky and present but not over gripping. The mountain acidity is definitely present and balanced with the tannins.
