We'd like to invite you to join us Monday, August 10 (tonight!) for a tasting of stunning Cabs from Napa Valley's Dunn Vineyards. Kristina Dunn, daughter of founder Randy Dunn will be pouring two vintages of Dunn's prized "Howell Mountain" and Napa Valley Cabernets along with the a gem from their cellar; the 1998 Dunn Vineyards Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon. Tasting begins at 5:30 PM and lasts until 7:00 PM. We hope that you can join us for this exciting event!

"I reported on a tasting where all of Dunn's top wines back through the 1982 vintage were served. Remarkably, they had hardly budged in development, yet they were still exceptionally rich in their pure creme de cassis, black raspberry, and blackberry fruit notes. These are obviously more than 20-25 year wines. It is not far-fetched to suggest that Randy Dunn is producing Cabernet Sauvignons that, in top vintages, will be fresh, lively, and rich in fruit at age 50. Unbelievably, Randy Dunn has barely raised his prices in the two decades he has been making wine. For those with patience, these are among the finest values in long-lived, classic Napa Cabernet Sauvignon."
