The 2022 vintage is a continuation of our mission to focus on elevating all aspects of winemaking, vineyard management, and fruit sourcing. We believe that great grapes come from great people who share our passion for distinguished terroir. Were proud of the grower relationships weve maintained, whose knowledge and intuition guide them as they adapt to challenging vintages like 2022.
Our final blend for the 2022 vintage includes a significant portion of Merlot, which adds freshness, bright red fruit notes, and a plush texture on the palate. The 2022 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon showcases expressive aromatics, generous fruit, and soft tannins that are amenable to enjoy upon release.
About Mount Veeder
Resembling a giant staircase, Mount Veeder's vines are planted on wide terraces of earth cut into steep slopes. At elevations of 1,000 to 1,600 feet, the microclimate is very different from the Napa Valley floor. Above the fog bank, exposed to the gentle morning sun and protected from the afternoon heat by the surrounding mountains, grapes on these vines ripen slowly and evenly. And in autumn, the mountain's cool days and warm nights mean extra hang time.
Rugged mountain conditions produce grapes with intensely concentrated fruit and big, rich tannins. Taming these tannins and preserving flavor are the high-altitude winemaker's biggest challenge. Because Mount Veeder's growing season starts late and often stretches well into November, harvest is a waiting game. But patience is rewarded with fully-developed flavors and ripe, rich tannins in the skins and seeds.
