2016 Robert Foley Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley California
The 2016 Robert Foley Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon is a powerful, age-worthy Napa Valley wine that reflects the intensity and character of this renowned mountain appellation. Crafted from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, it combines the concentration expected from Howell Mountain with the polish and balance that have made Robert Foley one of Napa Valley's respected boutique producers.
The wine opens with expressive aromas of blue and black fruits, ripe plum, dark chocolate, and violet, layered with hints of graphite, earth, and mountain spice. On the palate, it is full-bodied and richly textured, delivering generous dark fruit while maintaining impressive balance and definition. Ripe tannins provide structure without overwhelming the wine, leading to a long, polished finish.
With a decade of bottle age, this 2016 has had time to evolve and integrate while still showing the structure associated with Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon. It is drinking beautifully now, yet its concentration and balance suggest it can continue to develop with additional cellar time.
