I brought this for James the husband of our birthday girl Christina. James loves bold Napa Cabernet. This 07 Arkenstone Howell Mountain was drinking beautifully but will still benefit from another 3-5 years in bottle and has another 10+ years of drinking ahead. The one distinct character I always get from Howell Mtn. are the beautiful blue fruits they generally show. The Arkenstone didn’t disappoint. Beautiful dark cassis with blue fruits shining throughout. Bold, round, elegant body, beautiful balance of fruit and earth and well polished long finish. — 7 years ago

As the winemaker states, in perfume-making the term "accord" refers to the balance between top, middle and base notes. This PG achieves such an accord, with green apples and honeysuckle up front, a surprisingly delicate body, and a smooth fizzy floral finish. The bouquet is slightly citric. I paired it with Greek salad with shredded chicken and egg, and a side of quesadillas. — 11 years ago
