Tate Cabernet Sauvignon 'Spring Street'

David Tate, a native of British Columbia, Canada, is the Proprietor and Winemaker of TATE. For nearly 20 years, he has worked all over the world in many facets of premium wine production. As well as hand-crafting TATE wines, David is the winemaker and manager for one of the most renowned boutique wineries in the Napa Valley, Barnett Vineyards, where he has produced multiple vintages of critically acclaimed wines.

Prior to his work with Barnett, David was the assistant winemaker at Ridge Vineyards for five years atop Montebello in the Santa Cruz Mountains; his years with Ridge laid the groundwork for David's commitment to quality and understanding of what it takes to produce premium, world-class wine with a sense of place. 

We'd say he's doing a great job at his namesake winery. From vineyards in Saint Helena, this is a ripe and forward Napa Cab with a seriously delicious personality. Deep, dark, dense, and layered, this one offers up incredible notes of cassis, black cherry liqueur, cocoa, cedar, and graphite. It's ready to drink, but it will also cellar well for at least a decade.
