Big cassis and black currant on a dusty cedar frame with smoky blackberry, blood orange, clove and fir bark nose. Cinnamon, ripe cassis, dried, black cherry, toasty sesame on half-burnt toast. Graphite-blackberry and rustic cigar flavors. #howellmountain #howell #howellmtn #mountainwine #napa #Bravantevineyards #cabernet #cabernetacademy #caliclassic #cawine

Leads with lots of lush, ripe fruit - wouldn't have called this as a Howell Mtn. cab if I tasted it blind. It's delicious, if lacking a bit in the complexity department.

A bit disappointing for a Howell Mountain cab. Mild tannin and not much structure. Opened up as night went on, but not much there.
