2021 CADE Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon, Howell Mountain

The 2021 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon has aromas of boysenberry, black cherry, blueberry, clove, graham cracker, cola, and crushed rose petals. On the palate are flavors of crushed blackberries, raspberry coolie, milk chocolate-covered black cherries, caramel, cocoa powder, anise, and vanilla extract. The tannin structure in this wine is both powerful and refined. There is a length and persistence to this wine that makes this vintage of CADE Reserve very alluring and age-worthy. The wine finishes with flavors of candied blue and black fruit, fresh plums, and espresso. This wine is a blend of the best blocks, the best barrels, and overall, a wine that reflects the best of Howell Mountain.
