Mountain Cab needs some time to age, but when it does, it gets to another level.

Aging beautifully and can easily last another 5-8 years.

Jun 16th, 201320 years old and still going. This one is definitely not an 87 or 88. Upon the initial cork pop, this one is a 90 at the least. Given about 2 hours to breathe, this one easily ascends to a 93. Tre Colline currently is Howell Mountain property that is owned by O'Shaughnessy. Don't understand the 87 at all! This wine has a Blackberry kind of nose. Has a lot of herb and spice. The middle of this wine has great weight and density. This wine has not started to decline in any way. Is still holding strong through the middle. However, I do not expect this one to improve any more in the bottle. If you have this one, it is time to start drinking. Very nice finish of some pepper, still even a slight bit of tannin. However, this one has done a great job of integration. Is ready to go without a doubt! What a surprise from Beringer ... without much of a surprise here. Definitely a top producer in the Napa Valley.

This is now called Steinhauer Ranch in honor of the long-time viticulturist Bob Steinhauer, who ensured top quality came out of the vineyards. Complex, with pomegranate and rose petals, spicy oak and even some deep guava paste notes. Quite a treat
