Pride Mountain 2009 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa-Sonoma)

Country: US / Reserve
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon California
Winery: Pride Mountain / Napa-Sonoma

This gigantic Cabernet is one of Pride’s biggest ever. Blackberries, cherries and chocolate nibs explode in the mouth, but it’s no mere fruit bomb. The tannins and acids lend it integrity, and the finish is miraculously dry. A superb job, and as good as it is now, should develop over the next 12–15 years, depending on how old you like your Cabs.
