1996 Pride Mountain Vineyards Reserve Cabernet - 99 pts - 750ml

1996 Pride Mountain Vineyards Reserve Cabernet - 99 pts - 750ml

$335.00
1996 Pride Mountain Vineyards Reserve Cabernet - 99 pts!
Pride Mountain Vineyards was founded in 1990 by Jim and Carolyn Pride and since 2004 has been owned by their children Suzanne Pride Bryan and Steve Pride. From 2004, the winery has been run and managed by Steve Pride, CEO and Director of Winegrowing. Moreover, these wines catapult Pride Mountain into the top echelon of California's quality wineries.

Overall, their winemaking practices are traditional, even as they continue to evolve, and are designed to let the terroir signatures of the grapes be present in the finished wines.  The Bordeaux varieties of red grapes are 100% destemmed and fermented over a two-week period in stainless steel before being racked to 50% neutral and 50% new French barrels where they age for roughly 18 months with racking every 4 months.  An exception is the syrah that is only partially destemmed and is aged in 100% neutral barrels.

Rating RP99 - The virtually perfect 1996 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve 330 cases is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon. Opaque purple-colored with a profound bouquet of minerals flowers black fruits and spice this awesomely concentrated multi-layered wine represents the essence of Cabernet Sauvignon. Amazingly it is neither ponderous nor heavy handed with the oak acidity and tannin woven into the wine's formidable concentrated personality. The finish lasts for nearly a minute. Sadly it is extremely limited in availability but what a compelling wine it is! This is a spectacular wine that must be tasted to be believed.
