  The Wine Advocate
  "The 2008 Howell Mountain is fabulous. Blackberries, savory herbs, graphite and mint are some of the nuances that are woven together in a fabric of notable class and sheer personality. The tannins are quite firm and suggest the 2008 will require considerable patience. Readers who can wait will be treated to a superb wine. The 2008 Howell Mountain is 63% Cabernet Sauvignon, 18% Cabernet Franc, 10% Petit Verdot and 9% Merlot. Anticipated maturity: Drink: 2018-2033." - Antonio Galloni.

  The Wine Cellar Insider
  "Fresh black raspberry jam, spice, vanilla, oak and an array of spice box notes open the aromatics. The wine is powerful, tannic, full bodied and intense. This is one of the few wines that require bottle age. In fact it demands 5-7 years before the tannins soften and the wine becomes fun to drink."
