Jamieson Ranch JRV Collector’s Series Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon 2017 – iconic mountain Cabernet from Napa Valley

Jamieson Ranch JRV Collector’s Series Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon 2017 is a powerful and serious Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon from the famous Howell Mountain AVA in California. High above the fog on the eastern side of Napa Valley, it produces some of the area’s most concentrated and structured wines – and this vintage is no exception.

The grapes are grown in well-drained soils of volcanic ash and clay, resulting in naturally low yields and intense fruit concentration. The result is a Cabernet Sauvignon with significant depth, firm structure and a character that combines raw power with refined balance. A wine for the collector – or for those who want to experience classic mountain terroir in the glass.

the 2017 vintage shows both power and precision. It is ideal for aging, but will also impress now with strong meat dishes, grilled steaks, braised beef or mature firm cheeses.
