More About 2019 Selah Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon During his tenure with the Oakland A's, Joe Blanton cultivated a passion for wine, fostered by team dinners during away games. In 2014, Joe and his wife, LeeAndra, embarked on a vinicultural venture by acquiring a quaint vineyard near Howell Mountain's summit. The Selah estate vineyard spans three acres and is meticulously cared for by esteemed hillside specialist Josh Clark, whose expertise is widely recognized in the Valley. The Blantons enlisted Thomas Rivers Brown as their winemaker, drawn to an immediate connection with him; his winemaking style, cherished by them over the years, resonates with the same passionate vision Joe devoted to his baseball career. The Selah 2019 Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon excels across the spectrum, offering penetrating flavors, profound depth, impeccable structure, and enduring length. With a production of fewer than 250 cases, this wine is an absolute gem that deserves a spot in your cellar.
