PnP. Great nose and initial attack of an intriguing array of red fruit. But finish was weak and entire wine faded with limited time in the glass.

Great nose and bold first taste, but it's age causes it to fade fast and lose power. That being said, a Jose Bautista homer in the 10th for a 2-1 Jays victory over the Yanks makes up for it! Yeah, that was meant for you my friend and unfortunate Yankee fan, Mike Walker!!

This was fantastic! Subtle and elegant, still holding all of its power. Great stuff.

Jan 13th, 2019Wine of the night, but sadly my last bottle of this beauty :( Give this some air because after that it is deep and bold, just how a Howell Mt. Napa can should be! Nice tar, blackberry, and tobacco notes with a great long finish. Quite possibly my best unknown purchase ever!!

Nov 23rd, 2016Awesome!! I have zero recollection of ever buying this, but in the words of Vince Vaughn "I say happy accident!". Wonderful nose, ample fruit, bold yet refined....quite lovely all around!
