Attractive nose with wild berries

I have not had many Howell Mountain cabernets like this with crushed blackberry and blueberry character

cedar and flint

Fine combination of ripe fruit with zesty acidity and a mineral edge to finish

Bright acid and beams of tannin run through a core of dark red purplish Howell Mountain fruit. Potent yet refined, the 2021 is a fine effort. Blueberry jam, plum, lavender, chocolate and graphite all build into a huge, vibrant finish Blend: 83% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Merlot, 4% Malbec, 4% Petit Verdot, 2% Carmenere 2% St. Macaire
