5 Points - limited
CADE is Plumpjack's hot new winery on Howell Mountain. Limited.

Winemaker Danielle Cyrot has masterfully yoked the strength that Howell Mountain brings with this latest release. Intoxicating aromas of cedar, rose, black cherry, and lavender, with blackberry, cassis, coffee, and chocolate on the finish. High elevation power and elegance. This wine has length, depth and a finish that seems to go on for days; a Howell Mountain gem.

93 Points Jeb Dunnuck: "The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Howell Mountain comes almost all from the estate on Howell Mountain and is 88% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Malbec, 5% Petit Verdot, and the rest Merlot. It has classic Howell Mountain style in its ripe blue fruits, violets, iron, and bouquet garni-like aromatics, and its medium to full-bodied, with a rich, mouth-filling texture and outstanding length. It has another 15 years of prime drinking ahead of it."

93 Robert Parker: "The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Cade Estate combines fruit from the original vineyard and 13th Vineyard. It shows hints of pine and sage on the nose, accenting a base of ripe black cherries, while the full-bodied palate is concentrated. It's rich without being overdone, with a long, velvety finish.
