The 2021 Cain Five is a blend of 40% Cabernet Sauvignon, 31% Merlot, 15% Cabernet Franc, 10% Malbec, and 4% Petit Verdot, sourced entirely from surviving grapes in the Cain Vineyard atop Spring Mountain. It is the current release for 2025. This wine has that beautifully savoury quality so reminiscent of Cain, with a youthful vibrancy, featuring crushed violets and very fresh tarweed (a plant growing all around the estate property), reminiscent of sage and thyme crushed together with white pepper and hints of loamy earth. It is incredibly fresh and vivid on the palate, with tar-laced berry fruit, crunchy acidity, and potent tannins that display intense muscularity.
Ageable in the cellar, but also delicious to drink now. Decanting is recommend.
