Matilda Scott continues to do important work in exalting the personality of this site on Howell Mountain. Overall, the wines are on the delicate side of Howell Mountain, likely attributable to a combination of white tufa soils and microclimate. A reduction in new oak over the last few years has been a positive in allowing the personality of this site. Viticulturist Mike Wolf and Consulting Winemaker Françoise Peschon round out the team. Almacerro is a property to watch.
