ANTONIO GALLONI 96 POINTS - "O'Shaughnessy endured a challenging vintage in 2021. Yields are down 30-40% across the board. 'In some places, we just ran out of water,' longtime winemaker Sean Capiaux explained. On a more positive note, the wines turned out beautifully."
"The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Howell Mountain is another impressive wine from O'Shaughnessy Estate Winery. Bright acids and beams of tannin run through a core of dark red/purplish Howell Mountain fruit. Potent yet refined, the 2021 is a fine effort. Blueberry jam, plum, lavender, chocolate and graphite all build into the huge, vibrant finish."
