Cabernet Sauvignon

Cabernet Sauvignon Wine Details
Price: $40.00 per bottle

Description: Our 2000 Cabernet Sauvignon is a wonderful balance of power and fruit. The fruit came from Howell Mountain in the Napa Valley. The expression of Howell Mountain is completely obvious in this wine, where thin volcanic soils produced concentrated flavors in the grapes. The volume on this wine is turned all the way up right now with dark ripe fruit that competes for power with the French and American oak lactones. This wine, although a little potent right now, will become a phenomenal, balanced wine in 2-3 years. The years following, the wine will only continue to get better with age.
