Pine Ridge 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon (Howell Mountain)

Country: US /
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon California
Winery: Pine Ridge / Howell Mountain

A problematic wine. It’s too tannic and closed to enjoy now, and the fruit flavor may not be powerful enough to withstand aging. Then there’s the sweaty taste that provides a jarring note, and may be tamping down the fruit.
