The two ladies liked it. A lot. Comments - this may be the best bottle of wine we've had. That's out of 4,187 bottles that have been consumed - documented per CT. Might not be that awesome, but awfully good. New world great fruit smooth long finish.

I rated this a 94 back in 2016. However, the fruit has fallen off on this one pretty substantially. Not half vibrant as it once was. Time to drink up. If rating I would give it a 89. Will not rate as this was once a fantastic wine and would not want to bring down score for others looking to purchase more recent vintages

One hour decant. Deep dark magenta color. Cocoa, black cherry, dried raspberry, apples & cinnamon and colaon the rich nose. Smooth, dry, satiny palate with great acidity. Firm, full tannins on the medium long finish. Heidi Barrett certainly knows her business.

Not well known, but quite good. Pairs well with food, has a very long finish. This bottle seemed to be a bit thin but have enjoyed in the past.

Another great Howell Mountain Cab from Lamborn. Great fruit, bold with soft tannins that fell away after decanting. Try it, you'll like it!
