Description
Newton Vineyard founder Peter Newton believed in weaving his winery into the local landscape. The terraced mountain estate has less than one-fifth of its nearly 500 acres planted to vines at elevations ranging from 500 to 1,600 feet above sea level. The non-farmed acreage remains in its native forested state, providing natural habitat for indigenous wildlife. The winery was built to blend into the mountain and includes elements of the founders’ native lands interwoven with the California environment—roses, a pagoda, a Japanese red gate, lanterns, a London phone booth and French gardens. In the same spirit, it is no surprise that the team at Newton Vineyards is hoping you will “weave” some of its memorable wines into your cellar as well. Your lot features a horizontal library collection of highly rated single vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon wines from Newton’s estate vineyards—one case each of the 2015 Mount Veeder, 2015 Spring Mountain District and 2015 Yountville vintages.
