Howell At The Moon Cabernet Sauvignon Howell Mountain 750mL
| Vintage: | 2015 |

| Description: | This wine is a made exclusively from the UCD 7 clone of Cabernet Sauvignon grown in mineral ash and decomposed volcanic rock. The fruit was hand selected, clusters were sorted prior to destemming, and the berries were sorted after destemming to remove any imperfect fruit. This small lot underwent native fermentation in an open-top tank, managed with hand punch downs and a long extended maceration. The new wine was racked into carefully selected new French oak barrels and aged for twenty-six months before bottling unfined and unfiltered. Because of low yields the winery combined the best grapes of their Home and Knoll Vineyard for the first time. Complex and rich, this Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon is a classic expression of the mountain, opening with aromas of cassis and black and red cherries. The palate is supple and mineral laden, with a core of black raspberry, chocolate cover cherries, and sweet spices, finishing with clove, tarragon, and cocoa. Enjoy it over the next 10 or more years. |
