title: Davies 2013 Red Cap Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon (Howell Mountain)
description: This is the first vintage of this 100% varietal, vineyard-designate for the producer, a mountaintop site 1,900 feet high. Red, rocky volcanic soils contribute a dusty concentration to the wine that shows a graceful grip of cranberry, cherry and currant wrapped in buoyant acidity. A wisp of smoke appears at the end.
variety: Cabernet Sauvignon
designation: Red Cap Vineyard
