Remarkable Wines Made For You
“Every decision we make in the vineyard and cellar stems from our mission to craft remarkable Napa Valley and Anderson Valley wines, bringing pleasure and comfort to every table that’s host to a good life.”
– Stephanie Jacobs, Winemaker
We source our Sauvignon Blanc from grapes grown in top vineyards throughout Napa Valley and the North Coast, including our own estate ranches in Carneros, Suscol Springs, Rutherford, and Calistoga. The cooler, southern part of the valley gives us sauvignon blanc with bright citrus characters, flinty minerality, and balanced acidity, while the warmer northern region brings out tropical notes in the final wine.
"Sauvignon blanc was the first white grape variety our family planted in 1972 adjacent to the winery, and it's still thriving there today. Zesty citrus aromas and flavors and balanced acidity make this classic Napa Valley sauvignon blanc perfect for a multitude of dishes."— Dolores Cakebread

Grown in the cool Carneros conditions that maintain excellent balance between fruit characters and acidity in grapes. We ferment and age this wine in French oak barrels, and leave it on the yeast lees for months to enhance texture and complexity. Floral aromas mingle with fresh citrus, orange blossom, and white peach characters, and the palate is weighty yet balanced, with a mouth-coating texture and a clean, mineral finish.
"The 1973 Napa Valley Cakebread Chardonnay was the very first wine we released, and we've been fine-tuning it ever since."– Jack Cakebread
Our Cuttings Wharf Chardonnay comes exclusively from our Carneros vineyard of the same name. Here, at the southern end of Napa Valley, cool Pacific fog regularly blankets the vines, creating an ideal climate for gently ripening premier Chardonnay grapes. Frequent breezes coupled with the fog make Carneros the coolest appellation
The 2022 vintage was an extremely high-quality season, with grapes that ripened under ideal conditions. A cool and mild spring followed by a warm summer led to an early harvest. Though yields were slightly lower than average, the grape quality was exceptional leading to excellent finished wines.
"Vin de Porche-no accent required-is a traditional dry rosé, and true to its name, it's meant to be enjoyed on the porch or patio. Pinot noir grapes from our companion vineyards in Anderson Valley give this wine delicate aromas of strawberry and bright, refreshing acidity. — *Winemaker Stephanie Jacobs*
