Summary

The Lamborn Family Cabernet Sauvignon 2006 is a distinguished wine from Howell Mountain, California, crafted entirely from estate-grown fruit. This high-elevation Cabernet showcases the unique volcanic Aiken soils at approximately 2,100–2,200 feet. The 2006 vintage benefited from a cool growing season, allowing for a longer maturation process. The wine exhibits rich flavors of cassis, blackberry, and graphite, along with hints of cedar and cocoa, complemented by mountain herbs. With firm tannins and lively acidity, it promises significant aging potential, reflecting the expertise of winemaker Heidi Barrett and the family’s legacy as pioneers in the region.
