Pride Mountain Vineyards Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2009

Professional Ratings

• 96 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

  Deep garnet colored, the 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve features wonderfully expressive notions of plum preserves, baked blackcurrants and chocolate-covered cherries with an undercurrent of dried mint, scorched earth, bay leaves and wild mushrooms plus a waft of wilted roses. Full-bodied, it fills the mouth with tons of juicy black fruits and a sturdy, grainy texture plus bags of freshness, finishing long and earthy.

  his is a great Cabernet, blended with a drop of Petit Verdot. It shows the intensity of mountain fruit, with incredibly concentrated black currant and cassis flavors, with superb tannins. Few Cabernets have shown this degree of ageability. Drink now–2024.
• 93 Wine Spectator
  Offering a generous display of loamy earth, currant, blackberry and baking spice elements, this is nicely structured, with just the right amount of firmness in the tannins and acidity. Elegant and graceful. Drink now through 2023.
