The 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon Howell Mountain is prodigious. There is something here that reminds me of a top-notch La Mission Haut-Brion whether it is the subtle charcoal/burning embers character the blue and black fruits the hint of espresso roast the saturated purple color or the full-bodied powerful flavors. This is an extraordinary massively endowed wine but with great precision and purity. Forget it for 5 years and drink it over the following 25+.
