Mount Veeder Napa Valley Chardonnay

Michael and Arlene Bernstein were the first to plant grapevines on Mount Veeder in 1970. When 59 of their original cabernet cuttings took root and flourished, they knew they were on to something. Encouraged by their friend and Napa legend Robert Mondavi, the Bernsteins established the first winery on Mount Veeder. At the time, the Mount Veeder AVA did not exist. Undaunted, Michael and Arlene became the driving force behind its establishment. They later made history as the first vintners in Napa Valley to plant petit verdot, and the first to plant all five of the classic Bordeaux varieties on the same property. Today, Mount Veeder Winery has three vineyard ranches nestled high in the Mayacamas Mountains, producing powerfully flavorful, concentrated wines that express their unique mountain terroir. 14.5% ABV
