Beringer Pauli Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon Howell Mountain Napa Valley CA 2017

Tasting Notes: Boldly structured, this Howell Mountain Cabernet opens with floral lift, deep blackberry, dark plum, smoked meat, tobacco, and clove. Immense depth of dense, ripe tannins coated in dusty cocoa and espresso; focused black currant, cassis, and graphite carry through the powerful, full-bodied frame with a smooth finish.
