From vineyard to bottle

The origin, grapes and craftsmanship behind this wine.

There are good wines. There are even better wines. But this Freemark Abbey is the best wine. The ultimate California wine. Freemark Abbey wines have been produced since 1886 at arguably Napa Valley's finest vineyards, near Rutherford. The vineyards surrounding this town have been iconic since the dawn of California viticulture. The largest, most renowned wineries are located here, including Freemark Abbey, which has been steadily producing Napa Valley's finest wines since the 1970s.

We're not exaggerating when we say this might just be the best wine. It's craftsmanship par excellence. And we don't think that's surprising. The driving force behind Freemark Abbey Winery is the illustrious Kendall Jackson. This winery is beloved by both global and locals. The Cabernet Sauvignon grapes are grown on Bosche Vineyard, a small vineyard near Rutherford. It's considered one of California's most beautiful vineyards because it has everything going for it: climate, terroir, and sunshine. All the elements for a perfect wine are present.

Just sit down and enjoy this. This isn't just any wine; this is liquid perfection. Magnificent from the first sip to the very last drop. A paradise on earth, where one sip equals pure euphoria. Indeed, our oenologists are heaping superlatives on this magnificent red wine. Sublime and magical. After harvest, the precious sap is aged for an impressive 28 months in French oak, most of which is new. This releases an incredible amount of flavor, making you fall in love with the aroma and taste of Freemark Abbey. Your senses are overwhelmed by exuberant notes. With every sip, you discover new aromas. You'll recognize dark berries, blueberries, raspberries, and cedarwood. But the next sip, you discover depth: dark chocolate and black pepper. But also leather and a touch of earth. A true wine for the true wine lover.
