Note di degustazione
A wine of pure texture and sensuality, Dunn's 1989 Cabernet Sauvignon Howell Mountain stands out for its exceptional overall balance and layered, silky personality. Veins of underlying minerality add brightness to a core of dark red fruit, crushed rocks, mint, flowers and spices. What a pretty wine this is.

No tasting note.
The 1989 Cabernet Sauvignon Howell Mountain is a classic mature Dunn wine from this era. Still quite deep, the 1989 is peaking today. Dark-toned fruit, leather, espresso, dried herbs, menthol, gravel and crushed leaves build in a layered, super-expressive Cabernet Sauvignon that delivers the goods. Potent, somewhat angular tannins have never really softened fully. Perhaps that is why the 1989 has aged a bit better than the 1990 tasted alongside it in this flight. Even so, I would not push my luck on aging this too much further.
