Dunn Vineyards 2019 Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon

Sip into luxury with Dunn Vineyards’ 2019 Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon, a masterpiece crafted from Napa Valley’s iconic terroir. This award-winning blend captures the essence of Howell Mountain’s rugged terrain—where cooler temperatures and volcanic soils nurture grapes of unparalleled depth and complexity.

Why This Wine Stands Out

• Ranked #6 on Wine Spectator’s Top 100 Wines of 2023
• Vinous 98 Points: Praises its “extraordinary purity” and “silky tannins”, calling it one of Dunn’s most elegant releases
• Wine Spectator 96 Points: Highlights “lush fruit flavors” (blackberry compote, crushed plum) balanced by “polished structure”

Experience the Flavors

This Cabernet Sauvignon unfolds like a sensory journey:
– Initial impressions: Lavender-scented red fruits (pomegranate) and rose petal aromas
– Mid-palate: Smoldering tobacco nuances layered over grippy yet refined tannins
– Finish: Violet echoes linger long after each sip

Perfect Pairings & Aging Potential

• Food matches: Robust cuts like dry-aged ribeye or hearty stews
• Aging potential: cellar-worthy until 2040+; enjoy now with decanting or wait until 2025 for peak complexity

A Legacy of Excellence
