Description

You've never heard of these wineries?? Maybe that's because their wines get snapped up by mailing list buyers before they see the light of day! Located at the top of Spring Mountain, this winery was started by two friends who were amateur winemakers. What has developed is a remarkable operation that produces some of the best red wines in Napa. These wines, the 1997 Merlot, 2001 Petit Syrah and 2000 Cuvee Napa Cabernet Sauvignon are consistently rated 90+ by Parker and are a special treat in magnum bottlings.

Special Instructions

These wines have been provided by private collectors who are parents and friends of Sage Hill School.  The wines have been kept in temperature-controlled conditions since their acquisition, but in some cases that acquisition has been from other collectors, auctions and retailers.  In addition, as wines age, bottle variation can occur, causing some bottles to age poorly.  Neither Sage Hill School nor the donors of these wines can provide assurance of their current or future drinkability.  Purchaser is acquiring these wines at their own risk.
