Once you’ve met and fallen in love with the wines of Howell Mountain, you’ll probably want to keep coming back for more. Once a year you have an opportunity to experience wines from over 40 different Howell Mountain wineries, many of which don’t even have tasting rooms, making it even more of a treat.
A Taste of Howell Mountain takes place at the Charles Krug Winery in St Helena each June. It includes world-class wine tastings with gourmet food pairings, live music, and a silent auction that benefits the Howell Mountain Education Foundation.
The event was sold out this year, and next year will fill up fast too, so get your tickets ahead of time!
In November there will be a Howell Mountain Harvest Celebrationat The Lincoln Theater in Yountville. Tickets include wine tastings from over 20 Howell Mountain wineries with food pairings, assorted artisan cheeses, charcuterie, seasonal fruits, nuts, olives and Bouchan breads. There is live music to listen to as you savor these spectacular wines.
If you can’t make it this year, plan ahead for next year and get your tickets ahead of time at a discounted rate!
Mark your calendar for the Howell Mountain Bud Break Celebrationin San Francisco at the Presidio. This one includes world-class wines from about 30 wineries, and you can taste and purchase the wines on site-the only time of year you can do so! This one takes place in March, so get your tickets now and don’t miss out!
Howell Mountain wineries produce some of the biggest boldest Cabernets from California. Many of their wines are difficult to find, and these events are a rare opportunity to savor and get to know some wines that you won’t find in your local grocery store, or even your specialty wine shop.
