Cabernet Sauvignon Wines

Known for its traditional flavor, full-bodied Cabernet Sauvignon wine is the most famous dry wine to be served with food. As a world’s most dominant red wine-grape variety, it is cultivated all around the world, although many might predominantly associate it with the red wines of Bordeaux, where it is combined with Merlot to create many crucial and influential blends. Besides Bordeaux, this grape varietal is mostly present in Tuscany, Napa Valley, Australia, and Chile.

It doesn’t take a veteran wine-lover to enjoy Cabernet Sauvignon wines on the surface, as their flavor is unique and compelling. It does, however, take an expert to pick up on all the subtleties and fully appreciate the complexity, craftsmanship, and dedication that radiate from a wine of this quality. Cabernet Sauvignon wines have an alcohol content that hovers around 13.5%, and a signature deep, dark color – the very blood of the grapes, bottled and preserved for our enjoyment and dissection. The thickness and richness of the texture only add to this comparison, making the crimson nectar feel alive in the glass. The level of tannin present in the wine will sap the moisture from your mouth, and what better way to fix that issue than with another glass? Tasting Cabernet Sauvignon is tasting a large portion of winemaking history, and very few people can turn down a glass. A must-have for your collection, for sure.

1993 Dunn Cabernet Sauvignon Howell Mtn, California Red

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. The last three vintages (1993, 1994 and 1995) offer fabulous promise. They are black/purple-colored wines, with similar levels of sweet, cassis, mineral-tinged fruit, full body, and blockbuster levels of extract and tannin. Both the 1994s and 1995s are still in barrel. What I tasted represented what Randy Dunn believed would be the final blend. This is one winery where the 1995s may turn out to be a point or two superior to the 1994s. The 1995's super-sweet richness is even more intense than the fabulous concentration and extract of the 1994s. This is also another producer who turned out outstanding 1993s, a vintage that has received some unjustifiably tough press from West Coast wine critics.Robert Parker | 95 RPThe 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.Vinous Media | 93 VMEarthy, reductive aromas of anise, tar, mineral and currant lead to similar flavors that are intense, with firm, leather-scented tannins. Supple for a young Dunn Howell Mountain.--1993 California Cabernet retrospective. Drink now through 2007. 1,670 cases made.Wine Spectator | 91 WS
