Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon 2012

I could smell this one for days - spice box, toasted oak, blueberry, wet slate/minerals, and huckleberries. Very unique and incredibly silky smooth for a 2012. Purple cork always excites me especially from Howell. Thanks for the recommendation @Carl Fischer @Shay Aldriedge . Had a curve ball thrown at me - only 2011s on the menu. Almost went with the 09 Cade but asked if other bottles and vintages in stock - scored a 2012! Superb!! But from your night @Carl Fischer 2011 would have been just fine! Enjoyed after Straight No Chaser 🎅🏻🎄🎁 and vaguely remember @Daryl Calhoun mentioning his acappella days - ha! #chriscarpenterisgod — 7 years ago

@Ryan Mitchell my do-wop a cappella days are long behind me, but I recall one concert singing with the Nylons (look them up, young one). Straight No Chaser a great group - probably was a fun concert. Cheers!

Napa Valley Merlot 2011

8.9

A lovely Napa merlot with a little addition of CS. This is the same winery that brought as the CADE and the "baby cade". The grapes are coming from the Oak Knoll region of the Napa Valley which is a bit cooler. The wine is elegant and pleasant with aromas of black fruits, cherries, light vegetal notes and red current. Medium body, smooth and velvety, with nice balancing acidity and round tannins, very supple finish. My score 88+ drink to 2021 — 9 years ago

Beautiful Howell Mtn Cab. I'm a fan of Ladera and Cade so why not Hall. Very drinkable now but I'll let the rest of the case age a bit. — 8 years ago

Best expression of the grape I have tried, tasted it along side Cade Sauvignon Blanc and Frank Family Chardonnay, although very different varietals, the Fiano sang like a fiddle, beautiful and simple. — 8 years ago

Actually this is the basic Cabernet, not the Avoyelles which is the High end one, unless they took the name off that was there on the 13 I still have a couple bottles left & a Magnum @Edmond Bordelon, The Avoyelles was a Parker 98 in 2013,
