Notes from critics

We've been drinking Spring Mountain Vineyard's flagship Elivette for years, and we maintain a healthy stock of vintages going back to 2000 in our private cellar. This is a classic top tier Napa Cabernet blend with loads of flavor, complexity, and elegance.

Offers a densely packed yet energetic mix of sweet bay leaf, violet, cassis, plum and loganberry notes all driving through nicely, carried by sleek yet persistent structure through the detailed, mineral-edged finish. Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, Merlot and Malbec. Best from 2022 through 2036.
