Brand Napa Valley

From its stunning 110-acre property on Pritchard Hill overlooking Oakville, Brand Napa Valley has cultivated three distinct estate vineyards which range from 1200-1400 feet in elevation. The low yielding vines are farmed to accentuate the power and beauty of this unique hillside property, with a total of 17 individual vineyard blocks curated to 13 different rootstock and clonal combinations of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. These 12 planted acres are CCOF certified organic and thoughtfully farmed using biodynamic practices because Brand proprietors Jim Bean and Christine O’Sullivan believe that what is below the ground should be as full of life as what grows above.

Brand Napa Valley produces three red wines — Brand Cabernet Sauvignon, Brand Proprietary Blend, and Brand Vineyard N°95 Cabernet Sauvignon. Director of Winemaking Philippe Melka has been involved in Brand from its inception and is engaged in all aspects of farming and winemaking. Winemaker Matt Johnson works closely with Philippe to create Brand wines that express the wild beauty of this estate. They believe that their brick-and-mortar winery practices allows Brand to make the small decisions that set their wines apart. You’ll be able to taste the difference.
