2009 Frias Family Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon Spring Mountain District

Estate: Frias Family Vineyard

Region: Spring Mountain District, Napa Valley, North Coast, California, United States of America


Tasting Note:October 29, 2017

Deep ruby red. Started off a bit soft with some dark berries and cinnamon on the nose. With an hour or so in the glass it gained complexity with darker notes, blackberries, sweet spices and a bit almost like coconut. Heavy tannins (7/10) and medium plus to full bodied. Rich palate with layers of blackberries, cassis, vanilla, more sweet spices, cigar box, a touch of bramble berries and rich gravel. Long and lingering finish. Perfect wine for our 8th Anniversary.


Second time to Bern's Steakhouse in Tampa and perfect place for our 8th year anniversary.
