Yes, really. Classic, very high-quality, robust, Howell Mountain Cabernet at this price (vs. the $100+ usually). How? Neil Koch used his job as a Napa grape/wine broker to build great relationships with some of Napa’s top growers and winemakers (you may know his work on The Dude wines). Every harvest, he scouts out Napa grapes high-end wineries couldn’t quite take and barrels that just missed the cut for their prestige bottlings. And them makes wines like this that deliver all the quality and satisfaction of the big boys and a much, much, better price.
Like this stunner that opens with bold aromas of black currant, wild herb, graphite, cocoa powder and more. Intensely concentrated and deep, the rich currant/berry, cassis cocoa, herb and crushed rock flavors completely saturate your palate. Then classic Howell Mountain tannins – fine, firm, and nicely polished during their stay in French oak – provide freshness and food-friendly support. Excellent wine to drink tonight with a steak or lamb and built to improve 8-10 years more.
For You If: You like your Napa Cab to have plenty of power and grip and plan to enjoy this with a decant and a juicy steak; you're willing to wait a bit and let the velvety texture turn silky with cellar time.
Not For You If: You're after something more plush, smooth, friendly - try the Thread Feather's Stags Leap Cab for that!
