Iron-gripped mountain Cab with tank-like structure and serious aging potential.

Cedar and graphite lead the charge. Dark plum meets blackcurrant in muscular waves. Leather undertones weave through herbal notes. Iron tannins grip hard but fair. This Spring Mountain bruiser commands respect. Earthy fruit backbone runs deep. Serious length extends well past expectation. Built like a fortress for long cellaring. Drink now for power, hold for elegance.
