Our Estate Cabernet Sauvignon comes from the very best vineyard blocks located between 1,800 and 2,200 feet in elevation. Grapes from each block within the vineyard are fermented separately so that our winemaking team can be very selective about the lots that comprise the final blend. Wines are neither fined or filtered allowing for the full expression of the vintages' potential.
Tasting Notes
"Cassis, plums, violets, iron, and spicy red fruit berries all emerge from the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate, a full-bodied, seamless, nicely textured, and balanced Howell Mountain Cabernet. For a mountain Cabernet, the tannins are beautifully polished and integrated." - Jeb Dunnuck, Highest Barrel Score, 96 Points
