2018 Schweiger Estate Cabernet Sauvignon Spring Mountain District
$88.95
Perched 2,000 feet above Napa Valley, Schweiger Vineyards thrives under the care of Fred and Sally Schweiger, with son Andy crafting the wines. For over 30 years, this family has nurtured their land on Spring Mountain, where volcanic soils and dry-farming yield intense, dark red wines. Expect lush cherry, blackberry, and currant notes, wrapped in velvety oak, with a finish that lingers like a sunset over the valley.
