St. Clement Vineyards

Armstrong Ranch Cabernet Sauvignon 2013

Nice wine...too bad I only purchased one bottle. Close out so nice price as there won’t be any more St. Clement from Treasury group. Too bad the system won’t allow you to insert location. I’m home after a nearly two month trek. — 6 years ago

Wonderful and I felt lucky to enjoy. Great body. Perfect steak wine — 8 years ago

White Cottage Ranch

Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon 2003

Howell Mountain never disappoints, cassis, black fruit, some plum, tobacco, leather, lots of minerals. Nice long finish, with some tannins still present. Outstanding. — 8 years ago

Beauregard Vineyards

Beauregard Ranch Ben Lomond Mounntain Cabernet Sauvignon 2012

Smells a little like cotton candy and exhibits notes of cedar, clove, prune, cherry, red rose, eucalyptus with perceivable mint-traits. In another dimension this may be a cousin of Heitz's Martha's Vineyard. Awesome to have with bbq'd steak, garlic bread and knowing this is the only winery for this AVA ( just 20 miles south of where I got to imbibe this 400 case production of local goodness. ) — 9 years ago

Howell Mountain Cabernet Franc 2009

Yum. Ripe and silky cab franc, juicy and integrated with none of the green notes that can make cab franc feel underripe or unbalanced. Gorgeous. — 10 years ago

Howell Mountain Vineyards

Howell Mountain Old Vine Zinfandel 2015

I am very excited to drink this. From old vine Zin grapes grown on my favorite site (Beatty Ranch in Howell Mountain). And on cue it delivers that classic Beatty Ranch earthy black peppercorn spice on the nose, hovering over dark, very spicy blackberry and crushed rock. Absolutely attacks the palate with savory flavors. But no jamminess in the least. Very full but the 14.5 is well hidden. Such a long finish. Love this. — 6 years ago

Beringer Vineyards

Estate Bottled Bancroft Ranch Vineyard Merlot 1987

Still going strong, I wish I had a few more bottles. It reminds me that Merlot received a bad rap in Sideways.
This was velvety and full of flavors !

20 years on and still youthful characteristics shine through. Tannins mellowing and some savory secondary flavors are there, but all about dark fruit, tobacco, bell peppers and fresh leather. 13.3 abv as well! — 9 years ago

St. Clement Vineyards

Steinhauer Ranch Single Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2010

On the nose, this Howell Mountain beauty has chocolate, spice and mint accents on a core of red and black fruit. The flavors are the same/similar, and the tannins are well-integrated and balanced perfectly with acid, fruit and alc (13.5% abv). Full-bodied with a great, silky texture. The finish is long and dry, with notes of chalk and raspberries. An awesome bottle, drinking well now but this wine will also age well. — 9 years ago

Beauregard Vineyards

Beauregard Ranch Pinot Noir 2013

Should have aged this wine for a decade. Forest and ocean mist, limestone quality to the tannin structure. Excellent wine. — 9 years ago
