Marston Family Vineyard Spring Mountain District Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley, USA 2012

An intense nose of blackberry, blackcurrant, white pepper, leather, fresh tobacco, dark chocolate, and vanilla. A blackberry front leads to a concentrated mouth of black cherry, plum, anise, tea leaf, violets, and red currant. Firm structured tannins give way to a dark chocolate covered raspberry finish that is long, sweet, and clean.
