Friday, January 5, 2007 - This 2000 Howell Mountain cab has really opened up with bottle age. The wine is still dark purple in color. Exhibiting a big nose of blackberry, currant, black cherry, spice, vanilla and a hint of mint. This wine is a big, intense mountain cab that delivers flavors of blackberry, vanilla, spicy oak and a touch of earth in the mouth. Nice depth and complexity, age has softened the tannins allow the wine to come into balance. Long, lingering 30+ second finish.
