Gigantic, huge. Just erupts with the most intense cassis, chocolate and smoky new oak. Classic Howell Mountain structure, with dense, sweet young tannins and firm acidity. So immature, it's sappy and jammy now, and is sorely in need of cellaring. Don't touch before 2011, and should provide enjoyment for many years after. || Smoke and vanilla highlight pure berry aromas that seem more red-berryish than previous vintages, with some herbal notes as well. Creamy-textured, it fills the mouth with berry and cocoa flavors…
