Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
You’d never know this was a Howell Mountain Cab, it’s so fruity and accessible. Shows very rich blackberry jam, cherry pie, cola, sandalwood and exotic Indian spice flavors that are frankly delicious. But the structure is very soft, and the wine feels as candied as a dessert pastry.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Made in the richly extracted, super-oaky and sweetly soft style of modern Napa Cabs, this wine trades structure for sheer deliciousness. The flavors are wildly extravagant: blackberries, blueberries, cherries, pie crust, cola, exotic spices, smoke, graphite. But what the wine really needs is greater architecture and more definitive dryness. Drink now–2012.
