Benevolent Neglect

About

These Boston transplants know their stuff—they've worked with Napa's best and now run a minimal-intervention operation that lets the grapes do the talking, with limited bottlings sourced from around California showcasing bright acidity and pure varietal character. Swing by their downtown Napa tasting room for pours led by the owners themselves.
