Holly Grove Vineyards

Pacific Grove

Barrel Fermented Chardonnay 2013

I was drawn to the description including caramel and creme brûlée. Delicious! Not too sweet nor too dry. The price makes it even better. Apparently it's hard to come by so I'm buying up all I can tomorrow!!

2004 vintage is going to be oh so fine with our 2015 elk tenderloin tonight...exploding with rich black cherry out of the decanter right after opening...gotta let this puppy chill out for a few before inserting in the face. — 10 years ago

Rutherford Grove

Estate Reserve Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon 2006

Wonderful vintage. Great wine for my wife's birthday. — 11 years ago

Rutherford Grove

Estate Reserve Pestoni Family Cabernet Sauvignon 2007

Dark ruby red in color with a red rim.

What a gorgeous nose, with vanilla, spices, blackberries, cherries, oak, chocolate and black pepper.

Medium + in body, smooth and elegant.

Dry and smooth on the palate with cherries, black currants, Wood, vanilla, smoke, oak, spices and black pepper.

Long finish with round smooth tannins and peppercorn.

This is an awesome wine. Eight years old and showing a great capacity to age even longer.
If it had a little less vanilla this would be a perfect score, for me. If vanilla is your thing, this is it. Great Napa Valley Cabernet.

Only 400 cases were produced on this Howell mountain Reserve. 94 points wine enthusiast.

14.4% alcohol by volume.
