2022 Spring Release Wines
We are excited to share our new 2022 Spring Release wines with you including our 2017 Petite Verdot, our 2018 Primitivo Clone Zinfandel and our 2018 Old Vine Zinfandel - rated 95 points and ranked #2 Zinfandel of the Year by Wine & Spirits Magazine.
2018 Old Vine Zinfandel
#2 Zinfandel of the Year
95 points - Wine & Spirits 94 points & Double Gold Medal - American Fine Wine Competition
"On the nose, this wine produces a melody of fruit starting with red cherry notes leading to darker black cherry notes upon further examination. On the palate, layers black pepper spice dominate the entry supported by a rich, fuller than normal, body of black raspberry and dark cherry fruit with hints of cloves and dark plum fruit in the finish supported by well integrated tannins which expose lingering notes of anise and creme de cassis."
"In 2018, we again produced our Primitivo Clone wine. This newer planting of the Primitivo Clone of zinfandel produces a more fruit forward, full-bodied wine that differs greatly from our wines produced from the vineyard’s old vines. A popular wine right out of the bottle, this wine has notes of red cherry fruit with some black pepper spice. This wine is filled with bright red fruit on the palate with a core of crushed pepper spice on a medium bodied palate. This wine drinks well now and should be enjoyed over the next 5 years."
93 points & Double Gold Medal - American Fine Wine Competition 91 points - Wine Enthusiast
Hauntingly dark in the glass at first sight, our 2017 Howell Mountain Petit Verdot exhibits the classic characteristics of this highly tannic, black fruit grape. The light crop and smaller than normal berries produced a dense, chewy, full structured wine with firm tannins. On the palate, the hints of blackberry, blueberry and earthy, cigar box and leather notes fought its way through the tannins. This wine continues its dark fruit decent into the palate and finishes with a long mouth-drying finish with firm tannins and gripping acid, begging for this wine to be cellared up to 10-12 years.
Over the last couple of years, Howell Mountain Vineyards Cabernets (both our Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc) have been awarded the #1 or #2 Wine of the Year.

I had no idea how big the Houston Rodeo Wine Competition was until we won the Top Cabernet Franc in America for our2017 Howell Mountain Vineyards Cabernet Franc. Within a month, we had sold nearly 100 cases, so we had to place a 3 Bottle Limit on this wine. It's a must have for Cabernet Franc lovers. Order today!
