OUTSTANDING · CRITICS' CONSENSUS

Howell Mountain Merlot and Cabernet from a mountain-focused producer.

La Jota produces wines from Howell Mountain, a region known for mountain-grown Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot with structure and depth. The winery's Merlot W.S Keyes Vineyard has been assessed by Wine Advocate, Decanter, Wine Enthusiast, and Wine Spectator. The Heritage/Anniversary Release Cabernet Sauvignon and W.S. Keyes Vineyard Chardonnay round out the portfolio, each rated by the same prestige critics. Howell Mountain's elevation and volcanic soils shape wines of intensity and aging potential, characteristics evident across La Jota's range. The winery focuses on vineyard-designated expressions that reflect the mountain terroir.
