The vineyards of the historic Lewelling Estate were established in 1864 near the western foothills in St. Helena by the Wight Brothers' great-great-grandfather, pioneer winegrower John Lewelling. Here, the gravelly loam soil and microclimate combine to produce exceptional Cabernets with rich cherry, currant and berry flavors that are enhanced by traditional winemaking methods and aging in French and American oak barrels. At 138 years, it is one of the oldest continuously-owned family vineyards in the Napa Valley. To date, the Wights have focused their efforts on grapegrowing rather than winemaking, making only 300-600 cases each year since the 1992 harvest. They are a regular grape source for some of the valley’s top names (like Caymus, Viader, Beaulieu Vineyards). With the encouragement of friends, they have set their sites on making more of their own wines in quantities that make it possible to offer the wines outside of California.

Brothers Dave & Doug Wight team up to grow and produce some of the Napa Valley's finest Cabernet Sauvignon.
