Sequoia Grove<br />

Sequoia Grove is a family-owned winery founded in 1979, in a 110-<br />

year old barn beneath a grove of Sequoia trees in Rutherford, Napa<br />

Valley. It is here where they have honed their craft of creating worldclass<br />

Cabernet Sauvignon and other Napa Valley wines that emphasize<br />

elegance, finesse, structure and balance. Their consistent philosophy<br />

of making wines <strong>with</strong> varietal character that are reflective of the<br />

land helped establish Sequoia Grove as one of the premier Cabernet<br />

Sauvignon pro<strong>du</strong>cers in Napa Valley. Their 24-acre Estate Vineyard<br />

and 50-acre Tonella Ranch Vineyard are both located in the heart of<br />

Rutherford, where the superb climate and gravelly-loam soils impart<br />

distinct flavor in the Bordeaux varieties.<br />
