TASTING & DINNER
First planted to vines in the 1880s, Eisele Vineyard sits in the northeast Napa Valley, just east of Calistoga at the base of the Palisades Mountain range. Farmed organically since 1998 and biodynamically since 2000, the site has been principally dedicated to Cabernet Sauvignon for the last fifty years. Beginning with the inaugural release bearing the Eisele name in 1971, this iconic vineyard has received consistent recognition for possessing one of the great terroirs of Napa Valley. The wines invariably express the exceptional depth, elegance and longevity which are hallmarks of the Eisele Vineyard.
Our vision is nothing less than to re-embrace the long history of Eisele Vineyard while realizing the full potential of this remarkable estate. Preserving and expanding upon the vineyard's distinguished legacy in Napa Valley — and among the great winegrowing estates of the world — is both an honor and our aspiration. Through intellectual rigor, humility, and with the utmost respect for the land, our aim is to make wines that speak of the Eisele Vineyard in the most authentic way possible.

TASTING & LUNCH
Memento Mori is a limited-production winery that specializes in Cabernet Sauvignon from some of the most internationally acclaimed vineyard sites in Napa Valley. Memento Mori was founded in 2010 by three childhood friends, Adriel Lares, Hayes Drumwright, and Adam Craun, who have committed themselves to crafting sophisticated wines of tremendous balance, honesty and profundity.
The name, Memento Mori, is taken from an ancient Latin philosophy that reminds us of our mortality and the inevitability of death. Inspired by the serious health scares, family tragedy and times of trial they have experienced together throughout their friendship, Memento Mori is a shared mantra which the founders interpret as "Remember to Live."
That ethos is palpable in every bottle.
Winemaker Sam Kaplan translates each vineyard site into balanced, terroir-driven wines that tell the story of Napa Valley. This winemaking philosophy culminates in Memento Mori's flagship Napa Valley Cabernet.
Memento Mori wines seek to capture the essence of each of the famed vineyard sites from which they are sourced—Beckstoffer Dr. Crane Vineyard, Beckstoffer Las Piedras Vineyard, Vine Hill Ranch Vineyard, Weitz Vineyard, and Oakville Ranch Vineyard. As the founders see it, life is too short to not make the best wine possible from the best sites available. VISIT: https://www.mmwine.com

DANA Estate pursues the purest expression of place. With each bottling, we highlight a distinctive single-vineyard site at its best — blending the finest lots from the site to achieve a precise and balanced expression. Our terroir-driven wines showcase the magnificent diversity of Napa Valley, from rocky, rugged mountains to ancient riverbeds on the valley floor.
As a Buddhist, DANA's proprietor believes that every detail has a lasting impact — and no aspect of winemaking can go unconsidered. Only the best barrels are chosen for DANA each vintage, producing only a few dozen in total per year. VISIT: https://danaestates.com
