Description
From the heart of one of Spring Mountain's famed estates, this commanding blend of 95% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Cabernet Franc takes its inspiration from the red-tailed hawk--a symbol of strength, focus, and quiet authority. The wine takes flight with a combination of power, precision, and instinct, lifted by elegance and clarity. Broad-shouldered yet sharply focused, it reflects a legendary producer's confidence in restraint, timing, and control. Every element is deliberate, every decision decisive, resulting in a wine that moves with purpose and lands with impact. This is Cabernet with edge--elevated, fearless, and unwavering--crafted to soar above convention and leave a mark long after the moment passes.
