Why This Region Matters

Mount Veeder is Napa's wildest, most rugged mountain AVA, climbing the Mayacamas in the valley's southwest corner. Thin, infertile sedimentary soils and steep, fog-influenced slopes yield tiny crops of intensely concentrated, structured Cabernet, wines built for the long haul with a distinctive earthy, brambly character all their own.

Climate & Terroir

Mount Veeder's high, southwest-facing slopes catch cooling bay influence, giving it one of the longest growing seasons in Napa. Marine sedimentary soils, ancient seabed, are unusually poor and well-drained, stressing the vines into low yields of small, concentrated berries.
