New Releases
2025 Sauvignon Blanc, Napa Valley
This 2025 Sauvignon Blanc, complemented by 18% Sémillon, is an amazing aromatic amalgam of pineapple, lime, grapefruit, passion fruit, and peppermint, woven together with white currant, chalk dust, and an array of herbs and flowers.
2023 Intergalactic Rain Cabernet Sauvignon, Rock Block Series
The 2023 Intergalactic Rain is a titan of depth, pouring a saturated, opaque purple that heavily coats the glass. The nose is an evocative collision of petrichor and coal dust, evolving into notes of toasted spice and savory herbs like cardamom, sage, and rosemary.

Platinum Release
2023 Poetry Cabernet Sauvignon, Stags Leap District
This 2023 Poetry is wound tightly at this youthful stage, revealing immense concentration and a dense core of blackberries, cassis, and tart raspberries. Savory layers of tobacco, roasted peppers, and herbs provide heady complexity that grounds the vibrant fruit. .
A highly regarded vintage and awarded 99 points by International Wine Report, 99 points by The Wine Palate, and 98 points by Decanter.

Vineyard Update
This summer’s ideal temperatures have set the stage for another iconic growing season. We are still on track for an early harvest, and August’s upcoming heat wave is perfectly timed. Our red varieties are wrapping up veraison, while the whites are rapidly approaching full ripeness. Our team is currently fine-tuning our canopies and installing shade cloth around the fruit to protect it from any extreme heat. Soon we will start gearing up for harvest, preparing all our equipment, so we are ready when the first pick is called.
