There's a density to Cabernet from this ground that I've never found anywhere else. Layers of blackcurrant and dark plum, tannins that grip without grabbing, and a finish that asks you to sit with it a little longer. That's when you know the land did its job.

About
W Cab Wines sits on the valley floor of Napa, on a heritage estate that has grown Cabernet Sauvignon since the earliest days of the appellation.
The wines reflect what this ground has always offered: dark fruit drawn from deep alluvial soils, structure from the long growing season, and a quiet mineral thread that runs through every vintage.
We make only Cabernet Sauvignon, and have for as long as we can remember. We believe that kind of focus, over time, becomes its own education.
Tastings are held in a tower beside our farmhouse, built in 1915. Visitors are welcome by membership. To arrange a visit, we invite you to reach out to our team.
W Cab Wines focuses on Cabernet Sauvignon. Signature bottles include 2018 W Cab. When booking a tasting, ask which current release best represents the estate's style.
Yes, W Cab Wines has food available alongside tastings. Having food while tasting reduces the effect of alcohol and helps you taste more accurately — worth taking advantage of when offered.
Yes, W Cab Wines has a picnic area. Call ahead to confirm any corkage fee or outside-food policy — some estates allow you to bring provisions, others have restrictions. Arrive early on weekends to secure a good spot.
Yes, W Cab Wines offers vineyard tours. Tour spots fill before standard tasting reservations — book your tour and tasting together when you reserve.
W Cab Wines is open to wine club members. Contact them directly about membership options or whether guests can visit — many estates accommodate visitors on request.

Yes. One tier only: W Cab membership.
