I am the producer of this wine, so it obviously gets my highest rating. Unfortunately, delectable translates that to a numerical score (I hate numerical wine scores). At any "rate", you will love this 100% single-vineyard Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon. It captures the flavor I love from Napa's Howell Mountain. Medium-bodied, big bouquet, intense fruit, soft tannins, and a long, silky finish. I'm extremely proud of this wine. Check it out at NapaVintage.com

Perfect for intense discussions and brain-twisting balancing of aromas. Lengthy smooth and bright palate from the tip of the tongue to the way back.

Great Howell Mountain fruit, great smooth tannins. Small production, get some before it's gone.

One of the best cabs I've had this year. Remarkable depth and complexity.

The best that Howell Mountain has to offer at a very reasonable price. Balanced and food friendly and wonderful with hamburger, steak, or lamb.

Wonderful aroma, soft on the palate with lingering fruit and long finish.

I'm one who's not too big on 10 point scoring systems, but this is one you need to taste.

This is THE entry level to Howell Mountain Cabs. At a $35 price point this is a killer deal. Air for 15 min and it just rocks. Fruity notes, semi-bold taste, and it smooths out with airing.
