Mark’s dad, Jack Neal, loved to write to his wife, Athene.

And, we’ll love writing to you about all things happening at our winery, new releases, and life on our organic farm.

Our Winemaking Philosophy

Great wines come from great ingredients that only organic and Biodynamic® vineyards can produce. Our Howell Mountain and Rutherford Dust Cabernet Sauvignon are 100% single estate vineyard, 100% Cabernet Sauvignon small production wines that are simply exquisite. We believe in minimal intervention and that the incredible terroir should speak for itself.

#NEALVINEYARDS

True harmony for the vintage of 2024. It’s always so special when things come in harmony and alignment with nature and the diversity Mark Neal and family have created on this one sensor place that we call home. As committed certified Biodynamic vineyards, having our Howell Mountain harvest alignment with the biodynamic lunar calendar as a fruit day was magic.“What a finish for Howell Mountain, truly remarkable. Of course we are harvesting today as the grapes have full maturity and the phenolics are amazing. It’s great to get the alignment. We’re in for a beautiful vintage, a combination of this a great fall season, the methods of the biodynamic that we’ve been doing, and working with a fabulous team in the field as well in the winery. - Mark Neal#harvestmoon #biodynamic #napavalley #howellmountain #howellmountainava #lunarcalendar #vintage2024 #🍇

Spotlight in @foodandwine for our 2023 Rutherford Dust Albarino.⁠⁠"At first sip, this is a crisp and mineral style of Albariño. It then opens up to notes of nectarines and peaches, with nods toward springtime blossoms and jasmine. It's crafted from estate-grown, biodynamic, and certified regenerative organic grapes, and it spends four months in 80% neutral and 20% new French oak." Brian Freedman @freedmanreports⁠⁠Limited quantities of this fabulous vintage available.
