Salty Goats Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon
Salty Goats Wine Co. is the side project of Joe Harden and Phil Holbrook, partner winemakers who have made wine together at Nickel & Nickel for nearly a decade and bring that single-vineyard precision to their own small label. The Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon comes from Diogenes Ridge Vineyard, planted in 2001 and certified organic since 2016, perched at roughly 1,600 to 1,800 feet on fractured red volcanic soils above the Napa Valley fog line. The wine is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon aged 20 months in 65% new French oak, bottled at 14.5% ABV, with production around 150 cases. The winemakers describe dark mountain fruit, graphite minerality and fresh herbal notes framed by the firm tannins that define Howell Mountain. Decanter awarded the previous release 95 points, citing wild herb aromatics, a full-bodied palate of black cherry and blackberry, exotic brown spices, cedarwood and chocolatey tannins on a long finish of wet slate and loamy earth, and James Suckling called the current release a bold, undoubtedly Howell Mountain Cabernet with plenty of polish. Pair this 750ml bottle with grilled ribeye, braised lamb or aged Manchego. Vintages may vary; we ship the current release.
