Product Description
RP95 "The 2011 Proprietary Red Howell Mountain exhibits good red and black fruit, roasted meat, sweet forest floor and wet gravel characteristics, undeniable minerality, medium to full body and beautiful ripeness, purity and depth. Although it is the least concentrated of Abreu's 2011s, it is still a big wine as well as one of the vintage's most successful efforts. Drink it over the next decade."
AG95 "he 2011 Las Posadas is a relatively delicate wine for Howell Mountain, but the vines were pretty young back then. Inky dark fruit, licorice, menthol, lavender, graphite and rose petal all grace this understated, elegant Abreu wine. The 2011 is such a pretty wine. Even so, it has never been as exciting as it was from barrel. Note: Las Posadas is the same wine formerly known as the Howell Mountain bottling."
