·Founded in 1992 in a small area of the St. George hills now known as Coombesville by Robert and Lynn Craig.·Robert Craig Winery crafts Cabernet from Coombsville, Mt. Veeder, Spring Mountain, Howell Mountain.·Chardonnay is made from grapes out of the Durell Vineyard in Sonoma and Zinfandel from Howell Mountain.·In 2013 the affinity label changed to an estate cabernet and a Napa appelation Cabernet Sauvignon was added to the lineup.·Robert Craig also owns 100 acres on Howell Mtn. and farm another 35.For Robert Craig, winemaking always begins with the vineyards -- more specifically, with his belief in the crucial importance of vineyard location in producing wines of tremendous depth and character.By concentrating on small quantities of wine from distinctive Napa Valley mountain vineyards, he has been able to create wines that reflect the impact of “terroir,” or the combination of soils, climate and viticultural characteristics of the growing locale.Our winemaking philosophy builds upon the best that the winegrowing appellation has to offer. The goal is to let each wine’s special personality and unique qualities shine through.
A higher percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon has found its way into this wine that is dark, deep, nuanced and supple. Sourced from young vines on the Candlestick Ridge Vineyard, the 2019 HMC displays immediate Howell Mountain power in the glass with lavender, thorny fruits and mineral at the fore.
