2021 CADE Cabernet Reserve Howell Mountain

99 POINTS: The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve is a tiny selection of the best barrels, and it's another just about perfect 2021, offering a saturated purple hue as well as an awesome bouquet of black and blue fruits, spicy oak, graphite, and iron, with a kiss of Graves-like scorched earth. With full-bodied richness, a deep, layered, awesome mid-palate, and building tannins, this classic, age-worthy Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon deserves a solid 5-7 years of bottle age and will see its 30th birthday in fine form.
