Tasting notes:
Holler v.2021 is deep and muscular (of course), but sleek and finely textured, with exceptional power. It leads with a nose of blackberries, graphite, cedar, vanilla and mineral. On the palate it offers gobs of blue and black fruits, dark chocolate, roasted herbs and fine tannins. Once again, the World’s Best Cabernet Sauvignon For the Money.
Food Pairing: Steak and baked potato, old school like. Or roasted mushrooms and mashers.
Movie Pairing: To Kill a Mockingbird
