Lamborn Family Vineyards is situated on Howell Mountain, offering stunning views of Pope Valley and the Sierra Nevada mountains. Founded in 1969 by Bob Lamborn, the vineyard has a rich history, with Bob being a founding vintner of the Howell Mountain AVA. The estate was sold in 2022 to new owners from Singapore, who plan to continue producing wine under the brand name Mars, with their first vintage released in 2022. The vineyard spans 10 acres at an elevation of 2,200 feet and is primarily known for its organic Zinfandel and Cabernet Sauvignon production, with annual yields of around 800 cases of Zinfandel and 500 cases of Cabernet Sauvignon. The Lamborn family managed the vineyard with meticulous care, and winemaker Heidi Barrett has been crafting their wines since 1997. Visitors to Lamborn Family Vineyards enjoyed a welcoming experience, often interacting with the Lamborn family members who were deeply involved in the vineyard's operations. The wines produced here, particularly the Zinfandel and Cabernet Sauvignon, are noted for their quality and balance, reflecting the unique terroir of the region.
