Antonio Galloni - Vinous
"A dazzling wine, the 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon is also a big step up from the 2014 tasted alongside it. The flavors are deep and expressive in a wine that captures the essence of Howell Mountain. Blueberry jam, crème de cassis, lavender, licorice and menthol fill out the wine's ample frame effortlessly. The 2015 is vivid, dramatic and drop-dead gorgeous. That's all there is to it."
Product Description:
"If you’ve never been to Howell Mountain, 1,500 feet above the Napa Valley floor, this wine boasts many of the expressive notes you come across in such a big, broad and textured place. This wine possesses an opaque purple-black hue in the glass. You can smell the forest swell from the glass with aromatic notes of loam, pine bough, burnt cedar bark, clove, baking chocolate, and white pepper. And like the undulating terrain of the mountain itself, the palate rolls and twists with layered notes of spice-dusted black fruit, plum compote, lavender oil, worn leather, crushed rock, and a long-lasting ethereal finish." - Winery
