The La Jota vineyard on Howell Mountain sits above fog line, overlooking Napa Valley. With warmer nighttime and cooler mid-day temps than the valley floor, the grapes here develop thicker skins that impart intense color, texture and structure to the wines. With this wine, you get a decadent, approachable palate of dark chocolate, espresso and ripe blackberry flavors, upheld by earthy tannins. Undeniably Howell Mountain at its classic best.
