Tasting Notes
Showcasing remarkable fruit presence and expressive depth, the 2014 Mineral Springs Ranch (MSR) stands as a proud ambassador of our Estate Vineyard. One of the more powerful wines to emerge from Mineral Springs, this vintage possesses the intensity, structure, and gravitas to stand alongside our most celebrated releases, including 2008 and 2012. In magnum, the wine’s aromatics are particularly compelling: baking spices, raspberry, and wild blackberry take center stage, layered with subtle notes of vanilla, dry herbs, and earthy nuances. On the palate, it is both lively and serious, revealing sappy dark cherry flavors, precise minerality, and fine-grained tannins that signal exceptional age-worthiness. The 2014 MSR delivers a profound sense of mid-palate satisfaction, culminating in a long, resonant, and deeply satisfying finish. Designed to evolve gracefully in magnum, this wine rewards patience offering both immediate enjoyment and the promise of continued complexity for 10+ years.
