Outpost, Howell Mountain, Napa Valley (California) Cabernet Sauvignon 2017

Oct 7, 2020

By Miranda Franco

 Everything about this young Howell Mountain wine is singing in harmony.  The texture is luxurious but packed with deep complexity and powerful Napa Valley fruit recalling blueberry and crushed plum with violet, leather, spice, and cedar flavors waiting in the wings.  The rich fruit and fine-grained tannins build-up to an elegant and robust finish.   This 100 percent Cabernet Sauvignon is approachable in its youth but will really start to show its beauty with a bit more maturity.
