Textbook blue fruits, sappy flowers, spice box, and foresty, herbal notes all emerge from the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Howell Mountain, a perfectly balanced, layered, seamless mountain Cabernet Sauvignon. It’s deep purple-hued and has perfectly integrated fruit, tannins, and acidity, background oak, and a great finish. It’s another 20– to 25-year wine from this great estate.

"The single-varietal 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Howell Mountain is deep garnet-purple in color. It opens with notes of crushed rocks, cast-iron pan, and garrigue over a core of creme de cassis and baked blackberries, plus a hint of wild sage. The full-bodied palate is densely laden with black fruit and earthy layers, supported by firm, ripe, grainy tannins and plenty of freshness, finishing on a lingering ferrous note."

"Well-packed, delivering a mix of black currant and boysenberry fruit with good tension, while violet, melted licorice and blueberry sauce notes fill in on the finish. Has a polished feel, but there's a racy iron note buried here, too, for a nice sense of terroir."

The 2019 Howell Mountain evokes deep aromas of ripe blackberry, sous-bois character, and dark chocolate. The palate is plush and polished with well-knit tannin. Abundant notes of plum, black currant preserves and dried thyme carry through. The wine finishes with power, good tension and intriguing mineral hints of crushed rock and iron.
