Outpost Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon 2021

96 Points - rare                                                     Rare new Howell Mountain Cabernet from Outpost Winery and famed winemaker Thomas Rivers Brown. Limited. 95 Points Robert Parker: "Outpost's 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon is a beauty... It offers up evocative scents of crushed stone, cassis, blackberry and blueberry. It's packed, concentrated and full-bodied in the mouth, ripe—almost creamy in texture across the mid-palate—then rich and velvety on the finish." 95 Points Jeb Dunnuck: "Coming from a mix of estate and True Vineyard fruit, the Outpost 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate is brilliant stuff and has a more forward, rounded, sexy style than most in the vintage. Lots of red, blue, and black fruits, charcoal, graphite, and spicy oak define this beauty, which is medium to full-bodied, has plenty of mid-palate depth, and a great finish. Drink bottles over the coming 15-20 years." Outpost was established in 1998 with the vision of producing wines that are a living, breathing embodiment of this magical place. Truly one of the world’s great Cabernet Sauvignon and Zinfandel growing regions, the unique terroir of the Outpost vineyards – the hard, rocky red soil, high altitude, gentle cooling breezes and sunny western exposure – produces fruit of incredible intensity and richness, with a distinctive spice you simply cannot find anywhere else. Sharing this philosophy and intrigued by the potential of the estate’s magnificent vineyards, winemaker Thomas Rivers Brown has crafted the wines from the beginning.
