The White CottageThe White Cottage Road Howell Mountain property — where the Nouveau Medoc Winery built a stone cellar in 1886 that is now listed on the National Register of Historic Places — has been continuously used for wine production on the volcanic Howell Mountain terrain for nearly 140 years, making the Ladera stone cellar one of the most historically continuous winery building sites in California wine history.
✓
The Stotesbery familyThe Stotesbery family — who acquired the estate in 1999 and have developed the Howell Mountain wine program with a focus on the estate's most distinctive volcanic terrain — produces Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon and the Lone Canyon Vineyard designate from the volcanic basalt and rhyolite soils above the fog line that the Howell Mountain AVA's specific geological and elevational character consistently delivers in structurally intense, age-worthy Cabernet Sauvignon.
