1980 Dunn Cabernet Sauvignon Howell Mountain
UNITED STATES / CALIFORNIA / NAPA
Wine Spectator | Rating: 95
Massive, with inky color, this wine is jam-packed with ripe plum, currant and black cherry flavors and pretty spice and cinnamon aromas. Won't shortchange you on tannin either. Drinkable now but probably peaking in 1994. Drink 1993 to 2003.--Dunn vertical.Author: James Laube
