title: Mount Eden Vineyards 2005 Estate Bottled Cabernet Sauvignon (Santa Cruz Mountains)
description: Mount Eden makes their estate Cab the old-fashioned way: to age. The '05 is quite tannic and shut down right now, with a hard astringency, especially on the finish. However, it's rich in black currants, mocha and cedar, and is a natural for many years in the cellar. The score could rise considerably after 2011.
variety: Cabernet Sauvignon
designation: Estate Bottled
