This select blend of 2017 Henry Brothers Reserve is an expression of not only the Howell Mountain AVA, but the artful and unique blending of the five Bordeaux varietals from a single site. This Cabernet blend delivers with authority amid its depth, density and complexity. Upon opening, this wine is still a bit cocooned and shy. With time and some air to relax it, this wine opens up with generous to blackberry, sweet plum and black currant aromas. A nice touch of sweet vanilla and dark spices add to its opulent aromatics. Firm, fine, sweet tannin gallantly hold this wine together but give way to its rich flavors unfolding with blackberry, licorice and bittersweet coco. Perfectly balanced in its structure to carry the wine along its journey to a long lingering finish.

Im thrilled to once again create the Henry Brother Reserve Cabernet in the 2017 vintage. I describe this 2017 Henry Brothers Reserve Cabernet as . . . Big and Bold and will generously deliver as it further develops in the bottle. Enjoyable now with generous decanting but I do recommend additional cellar time. Drink 20222032.
