    The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Howell Mountain Signature Series comes from the Las Posadas Vineyard on Howell Mountain and was raised 23 months in new barrels. I certainly can't see how this beauty could be any better it's as good as any wine out there and stunning in every sense of the word. Winemaker Mark Porembski hit a homerun with these 2021s and if you get a chance to buy these wines, do it.

    Unfortunately, there are a scant 50 cases (two barrels) of the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Oakville Signature Series, a riveting Cabernet Sauvignon that does everything right. Aged 23 months in new French oak, it's a big, rich, full-bodied effort with tons of both red and black fruits as well as some floral and incense-like nuances that blossom with air. It's concentrated, has incredible mid-palate density, ultra-fine tannins, and a great finish.

    Coming from the Oakville Station and Las Posadas (Howell Mountain) vineyards and all varietal, the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley reminds me of a great Pauillac (I wrote Pichon Baron in my notes) and has awesome notes of darker currants, graphite, and leather, with a Pauillac-like lead pencil character that I just love. These carry to a full-bodied Cabernet Sauvignon offering fabulous purity, fine yet building tannins, integrated acidity, and a great finish.

    Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley flies out of the glass with gregarious notes of creme de cassis, blackberry pie, and spice cake, followed by hints of star anise, Sichuan pepper, and black truffles. The full-bodied palate is densely packed…
