Classic Cabernet in every sense of the word! Cassis, black cherry, tobacco briar and toasty, vanilla oak are only the beginning. Jammy fruit flirts with bitter chocolate, and the whole is complemented by a violet-scented bouquet. After ten years of production, this Cabernet has hit its stride and each vintage claims its own set of admirers. Classic Howell Mountain!

Made world-famous by W.S Keyes who set out his original vineyards in 1880, the Howell Mountain region has been the source of  exceptionally bold, full-bodied, and long-aging wines. The distinctive character of the fruit, primarily Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, is enhanced by dry herb and mineral notes. In 1983 Howell Mountain became Napa Valley’s first American Viticultural Area.

This wine was featured in The California Wine Clubs wine of the month club.
