A great bouquet on the nose, acidity is firm with sour cranberry and raspberry fruit with wonderful length, this will evolve into a great wine I must be patient with my NZ Pinot — 7 years ago

Another one with sort of cheesy aromas think cottage cheese... but mixed in with dried fruit and some citrus and red berries — 9 years ago

Really loving this. Vibrant nose of carbonic red fruit/cherry/raspberry, flowers/hibiscus/rose, savoury herbs. Drinking it is very enjoyable. The fruit is more sour cherry/cranberry balanced by those herb notes and with some dirt/earth minerality. Blind, I would probably call this Beaujolais. — 9 years ago

This wine is killer. Everyone loves Napa Valley fruit... But Napa Mountain fruit?! Forget about it! Love the Howell mountain! The red fruit nose jumps out of the glass but then it shows its age mixing in spices: cocoa powder, cardamom, and tobacco. Delicious! — 10 years ago

At the cottage paired with a Veal Chop with mushrooms and Pineau des Charentes sauce. A very expressive and pleasant nose of black fruit, blackberries and spices such a star anise. The palate is deliciously juicy and chewy, with nice, classy, silky, soft and elegant tannins that are very typical texture wise of a good Chambolle. Very balanced and delicious wine in this generous vintage. 91-92

Pour accompagner une Côte de Veau aux champignons et sauce Pineau des Charentes. Un nez expressif et agréable de fruits noirs, mures entre autres, épices, anis étoilée. La bouche est croquante, gourmande, juteuse avec des tannins qui ont la classe et l’élégance de texture de Chambolle, équilibre parfait et vraiment délicieux. 91-92 — 5 years ago

Bubbles from rocks. Sparkling pure Saumur Chenin Blanc smells of apple, raspberry, flowers, and a pristine mountain spring. The bubbles lift its wiry structure to balance before a finish of wet stone. Romantic, in the way that hand-hewed beams in a cozy cottage might be romantic. — 8 years ago

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. — 9 years ago

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
