Mystery Wine Identification

Cain Five Spring Mountain District 2014

Cain Vineyard & Winery

high confidence

The massive clues regarding an estate amphitheater perched at 2,100 feet on the western mountains (Spring Mountain), the blending of all FIVE Bordeaux varieties, and the embrace of complex old-world funk (brettanomyces) perfectly describe the iconic Cain Five. The 'Christopher Nolan' mention is a clever nod to legendary winemaker Christopher Howell, who has masterminded the estate for roughly 34 years. Furthermore, the 96 pt James Suckling and 94 pt Decanter scores, the $160 retail price, and the 14.3% ABV perfectly align with the 2014 vintage of this wine.

This is our best guess based on available clues (blurb, nerdy details, etc.) and is not guaranteed.

Editor's verdictUpdated Sat Jul 18, 2026

This is 2014 Cain Five. Great price for a great wine - these wines have a bit of brett / barnyard funk upon opening, so if you don't like that, you should do a long decant or skip. But personally I'm a big fan of these wines and this is a great buy. - Jimmy (Wine Buyer App)
