Meritage
2013 Red Wine
Spring Mountain District
This rare expression of Napa Valley winemaking is one of only 120 bottles that will ever be made. Think of it as a bit of Napa Valley history in your cellar and celebrated in a glass with friends and family Your Premiere Napa valley wine is a unique and very special blend of two noble grapes: 85% Cabernet Sauvignon and 15% Petit Verdot. The Cabernet Sauvignon is from a steeply terraced vineyard, located high above the Napa Valley. The Petit Verdot is sourced from the eastern hillsides of Napa Valley. This wine exhibits tremendous strength from the Cabernet Sauvignon, while Petit Verdot adds balance and elegance.
Winemaker, Havens Winery
I have experienced a broad diversity of winemaking styles: from ultra-premium Napa wines to large scale production in the Central Valley. My goal as a winemaker is to try to master winemaking for every consumer niche, and to deliver great wines at every price point.
