Spring Mountain Vineyard Red Blend Elivette Spring Mountain District Napa Valley 2016
96 POINT Elivette!!! Waitā¦am I experiencing deja vu? Are you? Who caresā¦weāve got the SENSATIONAL 2016 vintage in da HOUSE!!! Over 80% OFF?!
UNREAL. You might think Iād be getting tired of drinking and talking about all this Elivette over the past couple of months ā but I assure ā it is justā¦theā¦opposite!!! Each time a new truck has arrived, with a few different vintages of bottled Spring Mountain District BRILLIANCEā¦I fall deeper and deeper down the Elivette rabbit hole. And it is just soooooo cool. Each wine, with its different blend make-up, and various block sourcing from the expansive property and all the elevations, and exposures, soil contrasts, and microclimates ā not to mention the differences that come with each growing season ā well, the possibilities and permutations are utterly ENDLESS!Ā
So ā hopefully, you scored a handful of both the 2011 and 2013 bottlings todayā¦but donāt lose that clear-eyed, full-hearts focus just yet! The 2016 is simply stellar ā a favorite in a sea of favorites, and for those of you that love CLASSIC Napa Cab ā this one is gonna ring the gongā¦LOUDLY. 61% Cabernet Sauvignon, then 18% Cabernet Franc, followed by 9% Petit Verdot, and equal parts Malbec and Merlot. The long, even growing season lends this all kinds of complexity, with the sort of balance and precision typically reserved for an F-1 racecar. This beauty purrs every bit as loudly, too ā with round and creamy notes of black cherries and blackberries, then spiced plum tarts, and soft and sweetly roasted Herbs de Provence, with a very Bordeaux-esque styling of graphite and bay leaf carrying into the lengthy finish.Ā
Wow. Justā¦wow. I donāt know if I could pick a favorite for the dayā¦probably whichever one sits in my glass currently. Luckily, at our CRAY-CRAY price $35ā¦we donāt have to choose, do we?!
Grab a lot. While weāve got āem!Ā
