http://blackcordon.com/Vineyards.htmlOur Home Vineyard is, literally, surrounding our home. It is located in the foothills of the Mayacamas Mountains; the mountains that form the western border of the Napa Valley. The vineyard straddles the line between the Oak Knoll District and the Mount Veeder appellation just southwest of Yountville. The BCV Home Vineyard vines are predominantly Cabernet Sauvignon, but there are also small blocks of Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot. For diversity of fruit and complexity in the wine we also source grapes from a very high quality vineyards in Rutherford, Calistoga and Atlas Peak. These vineyards are farmed according to our strict specifications. As you can see we use a blend of hillside grapes for power and structure, and valley floor grapes, from the tenderloin of cabernet territory, for complexity and density of flavor. I've always loved mountain cabernets and valley floor cabernets equally well for different reasons, but it was always my thought to combine the best attributes of both into one wine.
