The first serving of this wine I gave it an 8.5. It was after the second tasting that I gave it a 9. Full body fruit forward. Well balanced. Good but not great. $85

Deep purplish red. Layered with dark mountain berries and baking spices. Heavy tannins (7/10) and full bodied. Restrained with gravel, black cherries, dusty and dark cocoa. Long finish. Drink till 2034.
Will revisit tomorrow.

Howell Mountain wines are some of my favorites, and this will be no different...in 5-7 years. Extremely sweet and dense already, the plum and sweet herb notes need time to balance out.

Wonderful, simple wonderful. Wish I had more. So balanced, soft, round and packed with subtle fruit. Wish I had more.
