Too extracted by far, so rich and sweet in fruit, it’s like a blackberry and cherry Slurpee. Doesn’t really showcase Howell Mountain at all, except for the polished, firm tannins.——S.H.(4/1/2012)—— 84

The top wine in this quintet is the 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon Howell Mountain. It possesses the most concentration, sweetest fruit, and ripest tannin as well as considerable new oak and minerality. However, the wine’s ripeness and richness balance out the toasty oak. This big, mountain-styled Cabernet should age effortlessly for 15-20 years. Tel. (707) 945-0388

The 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon Howell Mountain reveals attractive minerality as well as blue and black fruits, but the oak dominates the fruit at this stage, and noticeable tannins kick in in the finish. While this offering has potential, it could dry out given the rustic tannins and abundant oak. Tel. (707) 945-0388
