Library Duets
Explore Corison Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon from the past 20 years! Cathy has been making wine in Napa for over forty-five years, and making Corison Cabernets for thirty-six. These vintages are an interesting way to follow her journey.

2014 was our first vintage of Sunbasket Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon, and 2018 is our current release. Both received amazing accolades, and we are proud to release them as a duet.
~
Only 12 of each duet are available.
We always use a Durand to open older bottles, as corks become fragile over time.

Take a deep dive and explore the
2018 vintage with this three-pack which includes one bottle each of the 2018 Corison Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, 2018 Corison Sunbasket Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon and 2018 Corison Kronos Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon.
2018 was a nearly perfect vintage. Budbreak was delayed due to a very cool spring, but perfect weather at flowering promoted a bumper crop. The growing and ripening seasons were mild, with nary a day over 100F, giving us especially long hang time, with harvest two weeks later than average.
Library Verticals
These verticals are specially chosen
from Cathy Corison’s library to create a beautiful gift to share with others, or as a lovely addition to your own cellar. Cathy loves verticals because they let you explore a winemaker’s style and see how differences in weather and time in the bottle affect the wine in the glass.
We will include a complimentary 1-year subscription ($50 value) to SommTV when you purchase one of these verticals. Cathy has been featured in a couple of their seasons, “Verticals” and “Blind Tastings”, with one more in the works.

25th Anniversary Print & Magnum
With almost a decade in the bottle, the 2011 Corison Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is singing. Each magnum is silkscreened with an anniversary star commemorating the release of our 25th vintage!
In 2014, we celebrated this milestone
with a complete vertical tasting from 1987-2011. Inspired by her notes at that tasting, winewriter Elaine Chukan Brown
created this gorgeous 19″ x 24″ print.

Tasting and Club Gift Certificates
Corison Library Tasting
This flight showcases our current releases and highlights a selection from our library. Walk out into our estate Kronos Vineyard for seasonal updates, and observe a small winery in action.
Estate Vineyard Tasting
One of the wonderful things about wine is that it can speak of time and place! Explore the terroir and vintage expression of our estate Kronos and Sunbasket Cabernet Sauvignons. Slightly different soils and the vines’ different rootstocks, Cabernet clones, trellising and training, and vine age produce very distinct wines.
Discovery Collector Membership
Introduce your friends and family to Corison! They will receive two shipments of wine, and access club member benefits, including complimentary tastings.
Curated Gifts
The Durand™
We love our Corison-engraved Durand™ wine opener! It’s indispensable for opening older bottles. In two stages, it gently removes fragile corks.
Coravin™ Pivot
Here at Corison Winery, we find that the Coravin™ keeps wine in great condition for up to two weeks. Open your bottle, replace the cork with a special stopper, and use the Pivot to pour your wine. The remaining wine will be preserved under inert Argon gas until you are ready for your next glass.
Wine Books
The Wine Bible – 3rd Edition
Wine writer and educator Karen MacNeil is a fixture here in Saint Helena, as well as a national treasure. We think you will love her opus, a lively tour from an expert teacher, grounding you deeply in all the fundamentals – vineyards and grapes, climate and soil – while layering on passionate asides, tips, anecdotes, definitions, illustrations, maps and labels. One of the most important wine guides in the world, it was first published in 2000, and this third edition shines.
“A masterpiece of wine writing. This is the best edition ever! No one writes about wine like Karen MacNeil.” — Kevin Zraly
Women Winemakers – Personal Odysseys
Lucia and John Gilbert, professors and lovers of wine, engaged in in-person conversations with dozens of women winemakers (including Cathy Corison) from throughout California and wine regions of France, Italy, New Zealand, Portugal, and Spain. They present the Personal Odysseys of these trailblazers through the lens of four career pathways and the cultural histories of each wine region.
