Description

Christian Moueix first discoverd the Napnook vineyard in 1981 and had an immediate sense that this land could one day produce wine of unparalleled quality.  His vision gives each and every one of our efforts a driving sense of purpose...

To create wines of a singular purpose.

1998 was an "el Niņo" vintage, resulting in a cool climate throughout the Napa Valley. Thanks to their French experience, Christian Moueix and his team knew immediately how to react: work even harder in the vineyard. By rigorously crop thinning, when the warmer weather of September arrived, the vines could concentrate the flavors in the few clusters remaining and allow the fruit to ripe.
