Howell Mountain Vineyards
2021 Spring Release

Dear Friends,
Spring in here and Howell Mountain Vineyards are in full bloom. Although, we had a few more nights of frost this year, the vines look good and we expect a consistent fruit set this year. The 2021 Vintage is off to a excellent start.
We thank you all for your thoughts and prayers last year during the Glass Fire on Howell Mountain. Fortunately, Howell Mountain Vineyards and the Beatty Ranch were spared from the fire. Due to the wind direction, we had no detectable smoke taint in our fruit which is very fortunate since the 2020 Vintage may be the best vintage of the century. The fruit was balanced with small berries which produced intense wines from the vineyard. We are excited about how the 2020 Vintage wines are developing.
Lastly, we have our new 2021 Spring Release wines which include two Zinfandels, Reserve Beatty Ranch Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, and our Cabernet Franc which was named "Top Cabernet Franc in the World" at the prestigious TEXSOM International Wine Competition. Some of these wines have a very limited production, so get your order in soon.
Thank you again for your interest in Howell Mountain Vineyards wines and we look forward to sharing our new release wines with you,
Mike Beatty

Named "Top Cabernet Franc in the World"
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The 2016 Howell Mountain Vineyards Cabernet Franc was named "Top Cabernet Franc in the World" at the prestigious TEXSOM International Wine Competition. Every year, over 100 of the world's top sommeliers from around the globe come together to judge wine from across the world's finest wine growing regions. Wines are categorized by varietal and/or blend, and, for each category, one wine is chosen as the best wine in its class and awarded the Judge's Selection.
This last year, our 2016 Howell Mountain Vineyards Cabernet Franc was tasted blind, alongside dozens for the world's top Cabernet Franc wines. After the judging was completed, our wine was chosen as the Judge's Selection and named the Top Cabernet Franc in the World!
Our Cabernet Franc is one of our limited production wines, so, although we are just releasing this wine, supply may be limited. So get your order in soon!

2016 Cabernet Sauvignon, Beatty Ranch |
| |
92 points, American Fine Wine Comp
"At first sight, this wine looks massive with its dark black color. In the nose, the wine exhibits dark, dusty blackberry fruit with a undertone of licorice reminiscent of “sen sen” breath mints. On the palate, the wine uncovers layer upon layer of dark fruit and earthy tannins with a long finish."

2016 Cabernet Franc
"Top Cab Franc in the World" |
| |
Best of Class, TEXSOM
"Soft, supple and richly etched in red fruit, this wine is also earthy in cedar, tobacco and dusty rock. Tight, firm tannins give it pronounced structure and elegance around peppery spice and lasting oak, the wine aromatic in mountain violet and sage."

2016 Petit Verdot |
| |
91 points, Wine Enthusiast
"This is a thick, brooding red wine from the producer's own estate vineyard—a study in dusty rock, graphite and dark cherry. Tobacco, leather and caramel chime in midway through on the palate, surrounded by structured tannin and well-integrated oak that complement the wine's broad shoulders and rich ripeness."

2017 "Old Vine" Zinfandel |
| |
92 points, Wine Enthusiast
"From vines planted before Prohibition, this balanced, burly red is sinewy, with components of black pepper, gravel, stone and iron. Red- and black-cherry fruit is rich and layered, with lovely contrasts of leather, tannin and spicy oak."

2017 Primitivo Clone Zinfandel |
| |
93 points, Wine Enthusiast
"Effusively and powerfully built around blackberry and graham cracker flavors, this bold, structured mountain wine is soft and unctuous on the palate. Firm, integrated tannin and oak don't hinder but rather add to the intrigue and appeal, leading to a finish of cinnamon and black pepper."
