Duckhorn Vineyards has sourced grapes from this distinctive region for more than 30 years and has crafted a Howell Mountain bottling since 1989. Recognized as one of the Napa Valley’s most acclaimed winegrowing regions, grapes from Howell Mountain are famous for producing age-worthy Cabernet Sauvignons with rich, deep color and excellent structure. To encourage further complexity, we bottle-age this mountain-grown wine one year longer than our other wines prior to release.

Winemaker Notes

Capturing the wild essence of its origin, this Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon is bold and layered, showcasing wild boysenberry, blueberry, and black plum with hints of cedar, cocoa powder and all-spice. The palate is dense with firm fine-grained tannins. The thoughtful addition of Merlot and Cabernet Franc balances the wine’s overall structure.
