The first bottle of my 21 Plinth. Black cherry, plum, blackberries. Ripe, not sweet. Graphite, pencil shavings. Wonderfully balanced, and drinking very nicely now. Modest finish. — 9 days ago

First time tasting the 2019 Bard. Big wine. Big ripe fruit - I’m getting mostly black with some red and hints of blue. Graphite. Lavender. Softened yet big chewy tannins. Acidity holding in strong at this point. Drinking well now with just a brief decant, but I can see this one really hitting a sweet spot in a few more years. — 2 months ago

Two years since my previous bottle and review. Drinking really well now. Lovely mouthfeel. Ripe fruit, black and blue, Structure holding together solidly. Very good find for 2017 Napa cab. — 16 days ago

Less tannic and more fruit forward than what I would expect from a young Howell Mtn cab. Big red and black fruit, ripe, nice mouthfeel but the fruit is dominant. Pretty good deal though finding it at an HEB in Houston. — a month ago

My previous comments are still spot on. Absolutely incredible wine. Mouthfeel, nose, primary ripe blue and black fruit, secondary graphite, lavender, wet stone…balanced tannins and acidity…just drinking so good. Perfect with my grilled steak tonight. — 2 months ago

Incredible! In a great sport right now. Perfectly balanced. BlackBerry, cassis, some blueberry, tobacco, licorice. Great mouthfeel. Supple, yet expressive tannins. Nice finish. Drinking so well! — 3 months ago
