2005 Cabernet as tasted in Des Moines

With thanks to Howard Bernstein in Des Moines for his kind words: “For the Cab. Sauv. lovers out there, Smith Madrone’s 2005 Spring Mountain (Cal.) Cabernet is a brawny lad that’s drinking nice now and will show well for the next 10 years. Stuart Smith said he considers this wine to be “silky.” Yeah, like a velvet gloved fist! http://dsmwineconnection.typepad.com/des_moines_wine_and_food_/2011/09/2011-wine-industry-tastings-pt-ii.html
