One of the cherished bottles of wine in our cellar is a 1997 Spring Mountain Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon.
If you're into wine, you know that 1997 was a landmark year for Napa Cabs.
Wine Spectator rated this bottle a '95,' a classic rating. It's not often we uncork a '95,' but when the time is right, we will.
Something I didn't realize about Spring Mountain was that the vineyard was the location for "Falcon Crest," the '80s TV series.
When we open it, we'll toast to the Channings.
I love Spring Mountain wines, but they're kind of expensive. We had a bottle of the '91 a few years ago and it was outstanding.
