2019 Pauli Vineyard Howell Mountain

A deep ruby hue hints at the wine’s intensity, while the nose reveals layers of dark plum, cassis, and blackberry, accented by warm notes of cinnamon and clove. The palate is bold and structured, with firm tannins and bright acidity supporting flavors of black cherry, cocoa, and espresso, with a touch of vanilla and oak spice. Full-bodied and concentrated, the wine finishes long and expressive, showcasing both power and finesse. While enjoyable now with decanting, this wine promises remarkable aging potential for decades to come.
