Howell Mountain is more than a beautiful area in Napa Valley, California. It is also an American Viticultural Area (AVA) characterized by high elevation boundaries and delivering intense, structured wine profiles. Sylvan Lakes Vineyard is a newer addition to this AVA; and, while the owner/vintner has been in the area for a long time, the vineyards are relatively new. The vines were planted in 2014 and produced lovely fruit for vintages starting in 2021.
