2012 Super extracted nose and palate. Dark ruby red with high viscosity. Tons of mountain berries both black and red. Intense structure that is very common with Howell Mountain juice. Moderate tannins (7.5/10), full bodied with a long finish. This can easily last for another 10 to 15 years.

May 27th, 2018Jammy sweet fruit galore and delicious, but not too dense though. Medium tannins and perhaps lacking on the earth and mineral spectrum for my taste.

Great tobacco, vanilla, chocolate, raspberries, jam. Huge fruit and exactly what you'd expect from Howell mountain.

A good balanced wine from high elevation Howell Mountain. 100% French oak for 22 months. Deep purple color and the fruit you would expect from it...blackberry, plum and black cherry with a chocolate feel on the very long finish. Find this while you can!
