Dragon Vineyard is an estate-farmed, certified organic vineyard. Planted at 2400 feet at one of the highest points on Howell Mountain, the vineyard sits well above the fog line and faces east, first to receive the soft morning sun. These important features, along with the rocky, red volcanic soil, make for a unique, full-bodied, powerful Zinfandel. This is often Larry’s favorite since it goes with what he most likes to cook: bold, flavorful, spice-laden meats laid over an open fire. There’s a reason Howell Mountain was the first designated sub-AVA in Napa Valley: the wines from this hallowed ridge are the most distinctive in the entire region.

Certified organic and planted at 2400’ above Napa Valley, these wines are among the most distinctive in the entire region. Powerfully deep on the nose and equally profound on the palate. Heaps of spice, blood orange and dark purple fruits, white pepper and savory mountain herbs. Smooth, refined, and precise mountain tannins. Will age exceptionally.
