The 2015 vintage will be known for higher quality of fruit with lower yields. In a year that was considered to be the peak of the drought, the relatively dry and warm winter resulted in small clusters with deeply concentrated flavors and textures. Cooler spring temperatures in May caused a longer flowering period and uneven fruit set, which resulted in less than average quantities. While the warmer than typical summer temperatures brought an early harvest, the expression of aromas, flavors and structure in the 2015 vintage wines are the epitome of our Howell Mountain hillside fruit.

Intense aromas of black cherry, blackberry, inky, tar and gravel. Big and rich on the palate with velvety tannins and ageworthy acid. Rich oak and a fine finish.
Through our barrel program we identify a select few barrels that exhibit extreme complexity and richness. Our Cabernet Sauvignon is black, inky color with delicate aromas of cherry, tar, cedar, blackberry pie, toast, vanilla, currant, char, and peppercorn. Rich, juicy, huge structure that “won’t frighten the horses” of cherry, blackberry, cassis, coffee, vanilla, dark and milk chocolate. Long, rich, spicy finish.
Complex aromas of black, blue and red fruit that continually change in the glass. Oceans of blueberry, cherry, raspberry, cola, cocoa, strawberry. Savory, briary, dried flowers, full bodied and rich.
Our 2013 Mountaineer is black with ruby edges. Expressive, profound aroma with numerous red, blue, black fruits, black and jasmine tea. The mouth is soft, opulent, blueberry, blackberry, strawberry, and currant with notes of espresso. A complex and hedonistic wine. Wine Spectator 92.
Fermented in both stainless steel (15%) and neutral French Oak barrels (85%), the wine reflects the pronounced fruit flavors and high quality of the vintage. Pale gold in hue with aromas of citrus blossom, lemon curd, passion fruit and lime zest with a touch of buttered popcorn and minerality in the glass. A round palate follows with balanced acidity, guava, mango and a satiny weight with ocean essence
Lemon-lime, pineapple, mango, key-lime pie with yummy crust. Full flavored and impeccably, elegantly, balanced amounts fo fruit, wood, and acidity. Dry, but very fruity finish.
An initial burst of berries abounds - raspberry, cherry, blackberry bramble - then violets and floral tones emantate from the glass. The elegant, silky, smooth, lush tannins flow over the palate with blueberry compote, cocoa powder and savory herbs. There's a mid-palate note of sarsaparilla and as the bouquet develops a touch of black pepper.
Intense blueberry, boysenberry and strawberry aromas. Floral, savory herbs, silky palate with milk chocolate, dark chocolate and vanilla. Supple and juicy.
This wine has vibrant aromas of cherry and strawberry with hints of dried flowers, savory herbs, and a dash of white pepper. The perfect balance of acid and soft tannins compliments the silky smooth texture and flavors of cherry cola and black currants.
"Topography matters!" Topography Wine has bright red fruit, cherry, raspberry, floral, bramble and tea leaf, cherry cola, hint of vanilla, great flavors and well balanced acidity. An elegant wine with valley suppleness and a mountain core.
