"The wines of Casa Nuestra are truly special: We have a rare and eclectic offering, with perhaps as many as fifteen different varietals planted on the eighteen acre estate dating back to the early 1960's. Our soil and climate offer a unique and unmatched style to each of the wines we produce, all of which are highly acclaimed."

About nine varieties are in this vineyard planted in the early 1940's.

2006 Tinto, St. Helena Estate
|
($30 btl / $360 case)
|
|
Just as they did in the old-world, we planted nine varieties on this
two-acre vineyard in front of the winery in 1992. We harvest, ferment,
age and bottle all the grapes as though they were one varietal. This vintage offers ripe cherries and sweet tobacco on the palate with a
finish of tropical spice. It has great structure & cellar potential.
Stephanie loves it with pizza. 330 cases produced. |

2005 Cabernet Sauvignon,
St. Helena Estate, Napa Valley
|
($55 bottle/ $660 case) |
This 100% Cabernet Sauvignon was grown on the western-facing hillside of our St. Helena Estate. This small block yielded enough juice to fill five small French Oak barrels, where we aged it for two years. The result is beautiful: A bright and silky wine with complex flavors of plum, black cherry with a sweet, smoky tobacco with some well masked tannins. We made 136 cases.
