Corison Winery

The Corison Winery, in its timeless Victorian-style barn, is situated in the heart of Cathy's beloved Kronos Vineyard. With eight acres planted exclusively to St. Georges rootstock, Kronos is a historic treasure. As one of the last old Cabernet Vineyards in the Napa Valley, it is one of the few vineyards to have produced world class fruit continuously for more than four decades. Farmed organically and growing on gravelly loam soils, the gnarly old veterans produce scant yields that result in wines of rare concentration and refinement. They are juicy with blackberry and plum fruit and complex with a mineral note and exquisite violet perfume.

Hundred Acre

“Good” isn’t a word Jayson Woodbridge, owner, vintner and visionary of Hundred Acre would use when it comes to his wines. His motto is clear and concise, “stand amongst the very best or not at all”; he’s spared no expense assembling one of Napa Valley’s most exciting wines. Accompanied by a team of Napa Valley’s brightest stars, Philippe Melka consultant (to the winemaking team) and Jim Barbour vineyard manager, Woodbridge has managed to create what Robert Parker has called, “a terrific example of great Napa Cabernet Sauvignon”

Ritchie Creek Vineyards

Blaufrankisch is a very important varietal in Austria, but is almost unknown in California. At Ritchie Creek Vineyard they produce a small lot of Blaufrankisch from a few rows in their lower vineyard. The wine from these grapes is characterized by a unique spiciness and forward fruit that is almost recklessly exuberant. The adventurous wine lover will find the Blaufrankisch experience uniquely rewarding.

Nord Estate Wines

THE NORD FAMILY has been making a positive impact on Napa Valley growing wine grapes and wine production for more than 40 years. Long sought after by winemakers because of its high-quality fruit from the more than 1,000 Napa Valley vineyard acres it owns or manages, Nord also has received local, state, and national recognition for its sustainable farming practices. In 2000, the Nord’s launched Nord Estate Wines, which showcase the “best of the best” fruit from family vineyards.

Ehlers Estate

I had my first taste of Ehlers Merlot At Twisted Vine in Fullerton and fell in love. I drove down hwy 29 visiting various wineries and we saw Ehlers and had to make a stop. We stepped into their tasting room and was greeted by their friendly staff behind the counter. She asked if we had an appointment and we told her we no. They were closing up in half an hour by the time we stepped in but was they very accommodating, instead of turning us away, she squeezed us in for a tasting.

Huge Bear Wines

Huge Bear Wines are a celebration of the rich viticulture heritage and the rugged, individualistic spirit that embodies California, and more specifically, Sonoma County. The winery blends the finest grapes from Sonoma County’s premier wine growing regions, including mountainside grapes from Knights Valley. These Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc bottling are produced in very small quantities (less than 500 cases) and offer consumers an intense, yet balanced, full and fleshy style that showcases a distinct sense of place.

Groth Vineyards & Winery

Groth Vineyards & Winery is a family-owned and operated winery producing Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, and Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon for the past 30 years.
Groth Vineyards and Winery was founded by Dennis and Judy Groth in 1982. They became famous for their Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon after Robert Parker awarded their 1985 Reserve a perfect 100 points. It was the first time Parker awarded a perfect score to any California wine. Even today Wine Enthusiast magazine designated the 2009 Groth Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon as one of the "Best of the Year 2012," referring to it as "incredibly lush and delicious."

Honig Vineyards & Winery

Personal attention in an absolutely breathtaking setting; what more could you want? Casey was very friendly & spent time talking with us about the wine & the vineyard. Oh, and their wine is fantastic, too! We enjoyed the outdoor patio area. Their Sauvignon Blancs were crisp & delicious. Their Cabs were dry & fruity. And, they had a Cab Rose (first I'd ever tasted) that was quite good.
