"The 2022 Lokoya Spring Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon is a powerful and elegant red wine sourced from high-elevation vineyards in Napa Valley. The aromatic profile features a complex blend of dark cherries, blackberries, and blackcurrants accented by notes of sage, leather, and graphite. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and concentrated, balancing opulent fruit with firm, well-integrated tannins and a vibrant acidity. While this 100% Cabernet Sauvignon is approachable now, it possesses remarkable aging potential and is expected to evolve gracefully through 2035 and beyond."

THE FULL TASTING NOTE

Nose

Dark cherries, blackberries, and blackcurrant accented by sage, leather, and graphite โ€” generous for a mountain wine, with wild herbal edges.

Palate

Full-bodied and concentrated; opulent fruit meets firm, well-integrated tannins with the freshness of high-elevation vines running underneath.

Finish

Long and layered, dark fruit and sage in confident balance.

What we love

  • Spring Mountain is the most generous of the Lokoya sites โ€” power with a welcoming smile
  • The 2022 drinks earlier than its Howell and Veeder siblings without sacrificing depth
  • Completes the definitive four-mountain Napa study

What to know

  • Still $350 โ€” the friendliest Lokoya is not the cheapest path to great mountain Cab
  • Its relative approachability tempts early openings that shortchange its 2035+ potential

The softest and sternest poles of the Lokoya range: Spring Mountain offers opulence and early charm where Mt. Veeder demands cellar patience for stony depths. Buying one of each is the connoisseur's move. Read that review โ†’
