Item Description
The winemaker's notes: Soul music is about heart, it's about the scent of a loved one, it's about passion and the strength to sing about it. Lokoya's soulful 2015 Spring Mountain District Cabernet Sauvignon is about perfumed aromatics, black cherry and dragon fruit flavors with the structure to carry it all -- such that when you get that feeling, you'll definitely want Spring Mountain healing.
And critical acclaim:
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate gives this bottle a 98, saying: Very deep garnet-purple colored, the 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Spring Mountain leaps from the glass with vibrant black currant cordial, blueberry and black cherry scents with touches of tree bark, black pepper, rose hip tea and violets. The medium to full-bodied palate has a solid structure of firm, chewy tannins supporting the muscular fruit, finishing with great freshness and plenty of latent depth. Give it another 2-3 years in the bottle and drink it over the next 30+. 624 cases produced.
Jeb Dunnuck rates this bottle a 97+, saying: More backward and tight, the 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Spring Mountain comes from a handful of vineyards around 1,900 feet in elevation. While they have been buying fruit from Spring Mointain since 2003, the first vintage for this cuvee was 2005. This deeply colored 2015 reveals loads of floral and violet nuances as well as brilliantly pure blue fruits, graphite, and crushed rock characteristics. With building minerality, full-bodied richness, and an elegant, deamless, silky style on the palate, it needs 4-5 years of bottle age and will keep for 2+ decades.
