OShaughnessy Estate Cabernet Sauvignon 2022 750ml
$110.00
Betty O'Shaughnessy started planting Howell Mountain in 1997, and this estate Cabernet is what those volcanic highlands were always meant for. Winemaker Sean Capiaux blends 89% Cabernet Sauvignon with Malbec, Petit Verdot, Cabernet Franc and two heirloom rarities, Saint-Macaire and Carmenère, then ages it two years in 60% new French oak. Big mountain wine with no rough edges. For the steak-night regular ready to graduate from valley-floor Cab, this is the diploma.
Blueberry, plum and graham cracker with a pine-needle herbal edge. Full-bodied and concentrated yet plush, tannins soft and long, no heat on the finish despite the mountain ripeness.
Classic matches for a red like this: Grilled and roasted meats, hearty pastas, aged cheeses.
Betty O'Shaughnessy came from Minneapolis real estate and a cooking school, bought Napa land in 1990, then planted Howell Mountain in 1997 with 29 acres of Cabernet plus Bordeaux varieties. Founding winemaker Sean Capiaux has guided every vintage since the winery's first in 2000.
