Wine of the night, but sadly my last bottle of this beauty:( Give this some air because after that it is deep and bold, just a how Howell Mt. Napa can should be! Nice tar, blackberry, and tobacco notes with a great long finish. Quite possible my best unknown purchase ever!!

I actually had the Howell Mountain Estate Reserve, just booked it in my inventory incorrectly years ago.....anyways.....it's simply Awesome!! I have zero recollection of ever buying this, but in the words of Vince Vaughn "I say happy accident!". Wonderful nose, ample fruit, bold yet refined....quite lovely all around!

Great nose and bold first taste, but it's age causes it to fade fast and lose power. That being said, a Jose Bautista homer in the 10th for a 2-1 Jays victory over the Yanks makes up for it!
