Opaque ruby/purple in color, the 2004 Cabernet Sauvignon Steinhauer Ranch from Howell Mountain is the most full-bodied and powerful of these wines, with good sweetness as well as notes of blueberry and boysenberry intermixed with flowers, crushed rocks, and background oak. It is a solidly made, big wine that will need 2-3 years of cellaring, and should drink well for 15 or more years.
