High in the volcanic soil of the northern Vaca Mountain range is the Howell Mountain AVA, where Materra sources some of the best Cabernet Sauvignon grapes in the Valley.

The Howell Mountain vintages from Materra have been remarkable and the 2014 vintage is no exception. Welcoming scents of blackberry jam and blueberry pie are a mouthwatering introduction to this full-bodied wine.

Tasters can expect a smooth mouthfeel and will appreciate the long-lasting finish, while cedar and bramble flavors successfully amplify the delicious ripe berry notes.
