O’Shaughnessy

"O’Shaughnessy Estate Winery sits at 1,800 feet on the heralded Howell Mountain appellation in the beautiful Napa Valley. Founded in 1996, the estate encompasses one hundred and twenty acres. Winemaker Sean Capiaux has overseen the planting of the vineyard and selected numerous clones of Cabernet Sauvignon and all seven of the historic Bordeaux varietals for this unique property. O’Shaughnessy Estate Winery uses modern equipment to produce non-interventionist wines that are naturally fermented and bottled unfined and unfiltered. These techniques allow the varietal character and terroir of O’Shaughnessy Estate vineyards to be the stars of the show."

K&S Comments:

“This is one of my favorite Cab producers. This is the epitome of small, boutique, appointment only wineries. You won’t just “happen” upon their tasting room and you won’t stumble upon their wines in the grocery store. These are my anniversary wines folks. I sleep them for years waiting to pop and share them. Just planning to visit gets me a bit excited. “

K&S Notes:

• On Howell Mountain, East of St. Helena.
• A boutique Cab house.
• Infinity Cave & Reserve room are ridiculous.
• It’s easy to get lost on the way up.
• Fantastic pic in front of the front gate “for the ‘Gram.”
