I want to express my sincere thanks to everyone that purchased the inaugural 2004 vintage. I am now sold out of the 2004, but hope that you will sign up for the 2005 vintage, which will be released in September of 2008.

Tierra Roja Vineyard is in the Oakville Appellation of the Napa Valley, California. The vineyard is named for the rich red soil that gives the red wines from this region their intense flavor. This powerful, yet elegant, Cabernet Sauvignon will be the first wine that is made solely from the grapes of the Tierra Roja Vineyard of Oakville, Napa Valley. The vineyard was named for the rich, red soil that gives the red wines from this region their intense flavor. Screaming Eagle, Dalla Valle’s Maya and Joseph Phelp’s Bacchus are just a few of the neighboring vineyards you may know.Vineyard owner, Linda Neal, has empowered the winemaker, David DeSante, to give these special grapes every luxury treatment to create a wine that will become your favorite way to honor special people and occasions in your life. The wine will not be released until September of 2007, but you can sign up now to be on our mailing list. The goal will be to produce 220 cases per year. However, only 160 cases were produced in 2004. 2004 will be the first vintage released. 120 cases will be released for sale in September. |

"David DeSante is the winemaker and he has let the red earth speak. So often the wines from Napa have been “over-made” with fruit oak and alcohol in a manner that is powerful but not profound... This a a true estate wine. ...The pleasures of this wine are many, but I find special joy in how the terroir of the red soils of Oakville are captured in the glass and speaks to why these soils and these people are special. 97 points" - Scott Tracy Read Scott Tracy's Complete Review Tierra Roja is a member of Oakville Winegrowers |
