This wine transcends reality – a mind-boggling effort that every wine lover deserves to taste once in their life. A true bucket list Cabernet Sauvignon… it’s a tour de force, a majestic achievement and a showcase for what Napa is increasingly doing.
– Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate

Based in the venerated Napa Valley, Carter Cellars is a wine producer that makes classic California varietals such as Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot sourced from some of the best vineyards in Northern California. From the To Kalon Vineyard in Oakville to the Truchard Vineyards in Carneros, Owner Mark Carter has made sure to obtain fruit from impressive terroirs throughout the Napa Valley. The label was founded by Mark and celebrated winemaker Nils Venge, who went on to begin Envy Wines in Calistoga in 2006. The pair now makes both wine brands in their Calistoga location, while continuing to source grapes from different, remarkable plots all through the valley.
