Cain Five Napa Valley 2009

Winemaker Notes: The 2009 Cain Five is a poised and soulful expression of this signature Spring Mountain blend, weaving together all five Bordeaux varieties into a wine of elegance, complexity, and mountain character. The nose opens with layered aromas of blackcurrant, plum, and dried cherry, interwoven with notes of cedar, wild herbs, graphite, and a hint of savory spice. On the palate, it strikes a fine balance between power and grace—supple tannins, vibrant acidity, and a core of dark fruit are wrapped in earthy depth and refined structure. Now showing the benefits of bottle age, the 2009 vintage is unfolding beautifully, offering a harmonious, long finish and a true sense of place from Cain’s rugged, high-elevation vineyard.
