The Winery

Seavey

“Conn Valley is still somewhat of a no man’s land of Napa Valley, hidden away to the east of the renowned resort of Meadowood, but there’s no question that the Seaveys, backed up by brilliant French winemaker Phillipe Melka, are turning out fabulously rich, long-lived Cabernet Sauvignons that could withstand 20-30 years of cellaring.”-Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate

Nestled in the heart of St. Helena, Seavey Vineyard is one of the most traditional wineries focusing on historic winemaking techniques rather than modern trends. William and Mary Seavey purchased the historic estate of Seavey Vineyard in 1979 which was originally founded by the Franco-Swiss Farming Company in 1881. They began making wines from vines that were planted almost a century before knowing that the land was groomed to grow world-class Cabernet Sauvignon, along with high-quality Petit Verdot and Chardonnay.

Today, under the management of their children, the estate runs with the same devoted values even maintaining an inventory of every vintage of their Cabernet Sauvignon in their Seavey Vineyard Wine Library. With earthy and rustic aromatics, the wines from Seavey are effortless, timeless, and wonderful collectibles for all.

Tasting Notes

WA96
The 1997 Cabernet Sauvignon (1,400 cases) is very good. I rated this wine 96 last year, but after an additional year of bottle age, it may be even better. It spent 18 months in 40-45% new French oak, and was bottled after a light fining yet no filtration.
WS92
Dark, rich and perfumed, with ripe, supple black cherry, currant, chocolate, herb and sage notes. Finishes with a supple texture and fine tannins, making it appealing now.
