Robert Craig has consistently ranked among the foremost Napa Valley Cabernet producers since its founding in 1992.  Limited.

97 Points Vinous: "The Robert Craig Cabernet Sauvignon (Howell Mountain) is another stellar wine from Robert Craig. Bright and incisive, with tons of energy, the Howell Mountain Cabernet delivers the goods, big time. A rush of inky red/purplish fruit, rose petal, lavender, menthol, spice and crushed rocks build into a crescendo of aromas and flavors that dazzles. This deep, vivid Cabernet hits all the right notes. Superb. "

96 Points Decanter: "Richly scented with dark fruit, loamy soil, vivid violet and rose petal notes and coffee beans. Decadent mountain blueberry and mulberry fruit, with mineral underpinnings and chocolaty tannins that are firm, long and muscular. Nicely integrated with pops of wild herbs on the finish. A deliciously pleasing wine. Aged in 100% new French oak for 21 months, bottled unfined and unfiltered."

94 Points Jeb Robert Parker: "A blend of two vineyard sites, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Howell Mountain is an assemblage of 92% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Malbec and 2% Petit Verdot. Matured 18 month in French oak, it's cedary, but those shadings are balanced by attractive sage nuances set against a backdrop of ripe blueberries and cherries. Full-bodied, rich, velvety and long, it's the real deal."

From two estate parcels both right up on the summit of Howell Mountain at 2,100ft and 2,300ft elevation. Soils vary from iron rich red volcanic to white volcanic ash or tufa. The Robert Craig wines are expertyly crafted by Keith Emerson of Vineyard 29 fame.
