Charles Krug Family Reserve Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon is a premium 100% estate-grown wine from one of Napa Valley's most prestigious appellations. The Mondavi family estate vineyard sits 1,650 feet above the valley floor on the southwest side of Howell Mountain, above the fog line during the growing season. The distinctive climate combined with volcanic and iron-rich red soils produces fruit with exceptional balance and intensity.

This full-bodied Cabernet Sauvignon displays aromas of cigar, tobacco leaf, black tea, pomegranate, black cherry, with hints of blueberry and blackberry pie. On the palate, expect concentrated berries, espresso, mocha, and vanilla with firm yet supple tannins. The finish offers well-integrated oak with notes of brown sugar and molasses. Professional ratings consistently place this wine at 93-94 points from Wine Spectator, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, and Wine Enthusiast. The 2019 vintage is a blend of 96% Cabernet Sauvignon and 4% Petit Verdot.

Charles Krug is Napa Valley's oldest winery and a National Historic Landmark, established in 1861. The Mondavi family has stewarded the property since 1943, continuing a legacy of excellence that has earned the winery recognition as one of the "Top 10 California Tasting Experiences" by Food & Wine Magazine.
