Opens right off with dark and juicy fruit - layers of dark cherries, pear, apricot that then transitions with the emergence of tannins that carry notes of vanilla, earth, coffee. Really nicely balanced and a long moderately acidic finish. — 8 months ago

This is old school Ladera back when the Stotesbury fam had the winery. Quintessential Howell Mtn. Inky in the glass with florals and cocoa and black/blueberry on the palate. Soft and elegant finish. Needed a good hour decant but this 10 yr bottle age did wonders. — 6 years ago

Opened another bottle. Just a bit light. Plenty of complexity but lacking the fruit and dynamics of Howell Mtn. I needed more. — 8 years ago

Just stunning. All the benefits of bottle age, complexity and finesse make this a superb Howell Mtn Cab. Loads of up front mountain fruit, a nice floral nose and balance through the mid palate ending in a long romantic finish. Touché to the older days of Ladera. — a year ago

Mother nature dealt our friends at Lamborn a difficult hand recently. Due to the ongoing fires in California, they have lost their 2020 crop of cabernet to smoke taint. Our hearts go out to our family at Lamborn. Please keep our good friends in your thoughts, and in your glass. If you’ve never tasted a Lamborn wine, there has never been a better, or more urgent time to do so. We are stocking up on their premium Howell Mtn cab, and their rosé. Tell em that Ronnie and Anne-Marie sent you 🥰 — 6 years ago

I don’t appreciate buttery and oaky Chardonnay. This excellent Chardonnay has reduced the traditional characters and highlights
notes of honeysuckle,apple and Meyer lemon. Flavors of sickle pear, citrus and a dash of salt. A subtle blend of mineral and acidity. Excellent pairing with Thanksgiving. — 5 years ago

Bought this Howell Mtn. Zin at the Turley Winery in Amador County on the Shenandoah Wine Trail (the Sierra Foothills in CA. Black cherry fruit and gravel spice nose. A full mouth of dark cherry, cassis and spice taste with a chocolate vanilla finish. Pairs well with pizza on a warming summer evening in our lovely backyard on the green. — 7 years ago

I was told that this was the best Foglet produced by Cimarossa. And I would say that this is definitely the case by this wine. This wine is full bodied and very youthful for Nebb. Black fruit, red fruit, lots of weight. Lots of spice on the finish. Have 2 more on order, and glad I do. This is an INSANE Nebb from Howell Mtn producer of primarily Cabernet. — 8 years ago

I don't know why but this wine always surprises me even though I have had numerous bottles! The nose puts me in heaven. Huge flavors of tobacco, black cherry, and tar make this a very powerful wine. Excellent finish, and probably the best QPR Cab going right now. Mark and team know what they are doing up on Howell Mtn!!! Shhhhh, don't tell too many people. — 9 years ago
