I <3 Cabernet Sauvignon
We <3 the wine country
My wife and I have this love affair with Napa...we dream of having our little
agri turismo there...
Fall 2006
We set up our base in California wine country. Giselle decides to stay for a few months at Elizabeth Coleman’s 1900 landmark property on Route 121, where Sonoma meets Napa. Giselle works the crush from September to November, while I make weekend visits to help.
Two Cabs, Five Years
We have been making small lots of two kinds of Cabernet Sauvignon in the last 5 years: a Stag’s Leap, and an Estate Oakville. We plan to taste the first three vintages 2006, 2007 and 2008 with friends and family when East 12th Osteria opens in Feb 2013.
