2014 Dunn Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon

Rating: 94 Points Jeff Leve

"Tannic, tight and demanding time, but it should be worth the wait, for all that ripe cassis, blackberry and lead pencil. Powerful, intense, and fresh with a crisp bite of mountain Cabernet Sauvignon in the endnote. "

2013 Dunn Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon

Rating: 95 Points

"A bright and fragrant red with blueberries and blackcurrants. Flowers, too. Full body, super-integrated tannins and a fabulous finish. Seamless and refined. Needs three or four years to soften but already a beauty."

2015 Dunn Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon

Rating: Points Jeb Dunnick

Coming from tiny yields and a hotter vintage, the 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Howell Mountain is a much more up-front, sweetly fruited, sexy wine compared to the more brooding, Bordeaux-like 2014, although there’s no shortage of structure and tannins in this 2015. Giving up a great nose of kirsch liqueur, blackcurrants, sandalwood, sweet tobacco, and exotic spices, this beauty hits the palate with full-bodied richness, a layered, elegant texture, beautiful overall balance, and a great finish. There’s just a subtle firmer edge to the tannins here, which is common in the vintage, that I suspect will always be there, but the fruit is beautifully pure, it has remarkable sweetness (ripeness, not residual sugar), great balance, and it’s just a singular wine in the lineup. “
