Scaling Mount Veeder

 

Mt. Brave is a tribute to those who settled the rugged terrain of Mount Veeder in the Napa Valley during the 1800s. Winemaker Chris Carpenter produces Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Malbec and Cabernet Franc from our high-altitude estate vineyard. This wild and isolated winegrowing region features panoramic views, sparse soils, steep terrain and some of the lowest yields in the Napa Valley.

 

Among the tight-knit winegrowing community in the Napa Valley, no one understands the practical difficulties and spiritual rewards of mountain winegrowing more than Chris Carpenter. With an already legendary Napa Valley winemaking record for Lokoya and Cardinale, Chris had little to prove when the Mt. Brave project began to evolve in 2007.

 

This amazing one-of-a-kind opportunity presents an exclusive six-vintage, large-format double-magnum vertical of Cabernet Sauvignon, sourced from Mount Veeder.

 

Sitting at 1,400 to 1,800 feet in elevation, these small-production wines ranging from the 2011 to 2016 vintages will be the perfect addition to your cellar.
