Dunn’s Napa Valley Cabernet isn’t a second wine—it’s a different expression. Made mostly from younger Howell Mountain vines plus a splash of valley floor fruit, this bottling offers all the structure and depth you expect from Dunn, but in a slightly more open-knit package.

The 2021 vintage leans cool and classic: black cherry, cedar, graphite, and savory herbs, wrapped in fine-grained tannins and a finish that lingers with quiet authority. It’s still got that mountain grip, but with a bit more immediate charm than its big sibling.

If Howell Mountain is one for the cellar, this is the one to pull sooner—especially with a good decant and a ribeye. It’s serious Napa Cab, made the old-school way, by one of the region’s most consistent legends.

Professional Reviews

"Dunn’s 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley) hits the palate with waves of inky dark fruit, mocha, leather and spice. This is an especially overt style for Dunn. Then again, the Napa Valley Cabernet is designed to offer more early approachability than the top wines here. All this needs is a bit of time in bottle for the French oak to integrate further. Readers will find a dense, almost shockingly rich wine from Randy and Mike Dunn. Hints of graphite, sage, menthol and licorice kick on the long, beautifully persistent finish. A dollop of Cabernet Franc adds aromatic presence, something Randy Dunn quietly did in this wine in the past. The Napa Valley Cabernet is mostly from the estate, with a bit of purchased fruit from sites in Yountville and Oakville." -Antonio Galloni

Decanter

"The wine presents a deep ruby colour with a magenta rim. They produce just under 3,000 cases of this Napa Valley-designated Cabernet Sauvignon, constituting about 60% of their total production. The blend is 77% Cabernet Sauvignon and 23% Cabernet Franc aged in 72% new French oak barrels for up to 32 months. This young, restrained wine exudes both power and elegance. Aromas of spicy cedarwood dominate, supported by a vibrant core of crunchy red berries, firm, taut tannins, and delicate floral hints of red rose petals. There's an enticing confected note weaving through the cedarwood character. Overall, this is a wine built to age and tasted with Mike Dunn, who said that the wine was opened a couple of hours before tasting and double-decanted. I’d recommend holding off until at least 2028 before popping corks. The fruit sources are 45% Oak Knoll, 37% Howell Mountain, and 12% Napa Valley, with 6% coming from Yountville AVAs."
