About This Wine:

-Potelle Vineyard– Mount Veeder (87.2%)

This mountain top vineyard, in the Mount Veeder appellation, produces dark fruit with tons of depth, extract and structure. The mountain top soils are uniquely mineral rich, acidic and with low fertility, developing small vines, low yields and small berries.

-Stage Coach Vineyard – Atlas Peak (9.6%)

Stage Coach Vineyard is located north east of the City of Napa; between 1500-1700 ft elevation, the soils are rocky, volcanic in origin, basaltic red in color and tend to be shallow and well drained. Ten degrees cooler than the valley floor, this mountainous vineyard produces Merlot grapes which ripen very evenly, yielding a great dark cherry depth and a fantastic contribution to our cabernet sauvignon blend.
