title: Bravante 2006 Estate Cabernet Sauvignon (Howell Mountain)
description: A Cabernet of considerable heft, showing the big-time tannins the mountain is known for. Below them are very rich blackberry, blueberry, cassis and mineral flavors, leading to a dry, spicy finish. A bit hard and difficult now, but should hit its stride starting in 2012.
variety: Cabernet Sauvignon
designation: Estate
