Cathiard Vineyard | The Napa Valley Experience with a Bordeaux Flair - Tasting, Tour and a 3-Bottle Wooden Case

Description:

Florence and Daniel Cathiard, owners of Château Smith Haut Lafitte, took a bold step by venturing beyond Bordeaux with their new family project, Cathiard Vineyard. Located along Zinfandel Lane, as you head west towards the Mayacamas foothills, tranquility descends quickly and the vistas become increasingly breathtaking. The estate spans 250 acres, with 58 dedicated to vines and the remainder preserved as natural landscape. The vineyard, which ranges from the St. Helena alluvial fan to the steep Rutherford hillside at nearly 1,000 feet in elevation, features varied terrain with gentle slopes. We take pride in producing three red wines from estate-grown, organically farmed grapes. Our commitment to low yields and minimal intervention ensures a profound sense of place, with an emphasis on finesse, elegance and agreeability.

Highlights:

• Wooden case with a bottle of each of our wines, featuring two classic red blends and our estate Cabernet Sauvignon - Hora, Founding Brothers and Cathiard Vineyard
• Private tasting experience at our private estate for up to 6 guests, including a tour of our vat room, cellar and caves
