Description
George Belden Crane was one of Napa Valley's first vineyardists. He planted his first vines in south St. Helena in 1860. Dr. Crane was instrumental in planting and promoting European varietals in Napa Valley at a time when growers were trying to get the most out of Mission grapes. Many vineyards in the Valley during the late 1800's were planted from stock from his experimental vitis vinifera block. Since 1932, three generations of the Salvestrin family have farmed the historic Crane Ranch. This lot of 100 percent Cabernet Sauvignon is a tribute to Dr. Crane.
