Dunn Vineyards Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon 1986

Matt Duncan

Grands Vin indeed. Opened with massive tannins and was wound very tight. Nice bright core opened up, with great length and precision after and hour.

5L, in a beautiful place. One of the better Dunn I've had.

Rob Marini

Drinks like its 3 years old. Spicy, fruity, bold - delicious!

Crusty old Dunn is a great way to start the week!

Adam Jesberger

86 HM - what else to say other than it's the wine that got me into wine; every time I taste it I remember why I got started in this business.. First tried at 16 years old at the Brown Palace Hotel in Denver with my Dad. Today, a couple decades later, got to enjoy it again from 5L surrounded by good friends and family. 10 is for all of it, not just the wine. Grateful to Jason and Sarah Heller for their generosity. #happyeaster

Awesome treat. Fresh and vibrant.

Had the same bottle in a restaurant almost three years ago to the week. This bottle with a much scarier cork was way better. Amazing, bright red fruit, acid for days, really surprising, 13%, awesome.

Doug Powers

Great fruit, great balance, this has depth and complexity, very long finish, needs more cellaring.

Ron Siegel

Another great older Dunn HM that is drinking well in a Bordeaux style. This had the higher acid, lower alcohol & ripeness that I love in older Cali Cabs with lots of dry, sweet red cherry, berry fruits, cedar, dried herbs, licorice spice, & tobacco.
