A limited-production Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley, bottled around 15-16% ABV in a 750ml bottle. It is made from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon and was limited to roughly 100 cases. Dark Ark came from a pre-blending selection of Ark Vineyard barrels that proved denser and more powerful than the rest of the 2018 set; the remaining barrels were bottled separately. The nose opens with plum preserves, crème de cassis and Chinese five spice, then lavender, iron ore and menthol, with tree bark, wild blueberries, smoked tobacco, violets and damp earth. The palate is dense and brooding, with black cherries, cassis and loam, full-bodied concentration, fine-grained tannins and integrated oak. The finish is long and velvety, with mineral character and blue-fruit depth.
