This single-vineyard estate-grown Cabernet Sauvignon is born in the vineyard blocks that surround the Robert Foley Vineyards winery facility at 2000 feet elevation on Howell Mountain. The 2012 growing season brought us long cool and even temperatures that allowed our estate-grown Cabernet Sauvignon to ripen slowly and completely, providing a remarkable elegance. Black cherry and cranberry aromas introduce a lush, seemingly sweet, mid-palate filled with ripe fruit flavors and a flood of fine tannins. Natural acidity completes this balance in a long lingering finish. This wine will continue to bottle age gracefully for many years to come.
Hector Lopez's golden touch in our estate vineyard has produced the best fruit I have ever worked with. This is my favorite wine, bar none. Production of the Howell Mountain Cabernet is very limited but worth the effort to take the ride! Another timeless wine, we'll be enjoying this for many years to come. And with more mature fruit beginning to come on line now from our newest vineyard on the property, the Howell Mountain Cabernet will hopefully not be in such a short supply as it has been in the past.
