20 years on and still youthful characteristics shine through. Tannins mellowing and some savory secondary flavors are there, but all about dark fruit, tobacco, bell peppers and fresh leather. 13.3 abv as well!

So good. The nose on this wine is what makes it special. The palate is a perfect dance between the fruit and tannin flavors. Just spectacular and could obviously stay in the bottle for many more years and get even better.

Leather, spice, and flint on the nose, pronounced but soft tannins, with still lively fruit and acidity. An excellent example of well-aged Howell Mtn Cabernet.

An old friend. I had the 2001. After a month of trying to get the wine identified by Delectable, to no avail, had to pull someone else's photo. #boo#lame#customerservicefail
