We are pleased to announce that our Howell Mountain Vineyards 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon received a Double Gold Medal & 92 point rating from American Fine Wine Competition.
In the glass, rich, medium-dark color is exposed with a slight purple hue. On the nose, the wine exhibits a bouquet of red currant and blackberries up front followed by a hint of crème de cassis, dusty undertone reminiscent of the rich, red volcanic soil. On the palate, the wine exhibits well integrated tannins with underlying notes of dark blackberry and black currant fruit. The wine finishes with hints of tobacco and leather along deep, dark layers of fruit and firm tannins which provide structure into the finish, which will allow this wine to age well. Cellar for 5-7 years and enjoy for 20+ years to come.
