Dunn, Howell Mountain, Cabernet Sauvignon 1989 (1.5L)

Base neck

94 Points CellarTracker Member

From Magnum. 2 hour decant with less than a teaspoon of sediment. In this format, the wine still needed an additional 3 hours of air before it fully came around. Also massive, and my last 750ml of this wine showed better. Nonetheless, all the earmarkings of a great wine and one of the best from Napa for this vintage. Loads of very ripe black and red fruits, tannins still a bit thick but also rounded and pliable. Touches of brett that were perfectly enjoyable, with some eucalyptus, sweet Oak and cassis.

The 1993 Cabernet Sauvignon Howell Mountain reveals an opaque black color, huge tannin, terrific purity, and density, a broad, heavyweight mouthfeel, and gobs of ripe tannin. It is a massive Cabernet Sauvignon that requires a decade of cellaring — at the minimum. (RP) (12/1996)

93 points Vinous

The 1993 Cabernet Sauvignon Howell Mountain is an excellent choice for drinking over the next decade or so, as it appears to be more of a mid-weight vintage for Dunn. Open and expressive today, the 1993 is a wine of balance and proportion. Sweet tobacco, anise and spice notes inform the close. (AG)(2/2014)
