Aloft Cabernet Sauvignon 2012 is a 100% Cabernet Sauvignon from Cold Springs Vineyard on Howell Mountain in Napa Valley. It is produced in minuscule quantities under winemaker Thomas Rivers Brown, with fruit hand-selected from favorite blocks of Cold Springs Vineyard, yielding 16 barrels.
The vineyard sits roughly 1,600 feet above the Napa Valley floor on Howell Mountain, an AVA renowned for iron-rich, volcanic soils and mountain-grown tannin structure. The wine is a library release representing the 2012 Howell Mountain growing season.
The nose opens with concentrated blackberry, cassis and blueberry, with vanilla, toast, lead pencil shavings and violet. The palate has spicy ripe black plum and boysenberry, rich dark fruit and polished mountain tannins. The finish is juicy, spicy and impressively long, with lingering cassis and fine-grained tannin.
