Where rivers, creeks and property lines usually define an American Viticultural Area (AVA), the Howell Mountain boundaries are defined by a 1,400 foot elevation contour line, placing it "Above the Fog". Upon review of the unique characteristics of the region, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (BATF) ruled that Howell Mountain was, indeed, worthy of the official AVA designation, making it the first AVA within the greater Napa Valley AVA. We invite you to discover for yourself how wine and life are better "Above the Fog".
