Juslyn Vineyards Spring Mountain Estate Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley, USA

嘉林酒莊赤霞珠紅葡萄酒

點擊次數：5661

The recently released 2004 Cabernet Sauvignon Spring Mountain Estate is a young, elegant Cabernet offering fragrant aromas of blue and black fruits, spring flowers, and subtle oak. Medium-bodied with fresh acids and a fine finish, this delicious Cabernet is approachable, but it promises to age easily for 15+ years. As proprietors Perry and Carolyn Butler move toward virtually all estate fruit from their 42 acres on the slopes of Spring Mountain, the quality of their wines has increased dramatically. Juslyn has been a solid performer for many years, but the most recent vintages exhibit a profound rise in quality, yet prices remain realistic for high end Napa wines.Tel.

Something went wrong with this Cab. There’s a vegetal, herbal taste that distracts, with not enough richness to balance it out. The ’03 also showed an green mintiness that lowered the score. Just seems wildly underripe, even in this hot vintage. ——S.H.(12/15/2008)—— 82
