CORNERSTONE CELLARS Cabernet Sauvignon, Howell Mountain 2011

The Cornerstone Cellars Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon is a wonderful showing in 2011. It instantly releases intoxicating aromas of fresh black cherries and ripe currants followed by sweet spices, pretty spring florals and a touch of cocoa making this impossible to resist. It possesses excellent structure with gorgeous polished tannins and layers of delicious Mountain Cabernet flavors that resonate through the wine, before bursting onto the supple finish. This is composed of 95% Cabernet Sauvignon and 4% Merlot from the Ink Grade Vineyard and topped off with 1% Cabernet Franc from the Carrefour Vineyard. A phenomenal job by winemaker Craig Camp.
