In The Vineyard
Winegrower Cathy Corison produces artisanal, age-worthy Cabernet Sauvignon that speaks of place, sourcing great benchland vineyards between Rutherford and St. Helena. We invite you to experience a unique glimpse inside a small, family-owned working winery the next time you are in the Napa Valley.
August 2024
At the end of veraison, we took a last pass through the vineyard, dropping green clusters that lagged behind their cohort. This allows us to pick uniformly ripe fruit in the fall. This year, veraison was remarkably even and we hardly dropped any fruit. Now with long, warm, sunny days and cool nights ushered in by the fog, the grapes are marching toward ripeness.
Cathy, Rose and Grace are walking the vineyards daily, monitoring vine health and checking for ripeness. In making their picking decision they look at many things, including vine status, flavor, aromatics, acidity, sugar level, and color. It’s early September and Cabernet will soon be rolling in! It’s an exciting time to visit the winery. Take a walk in Kronos vineyard, then grab a seat to taste some Cabernets while watching the crew craft vintage 2024!
Drink A Bottle
SommTV does a fantastic job talking about the world of wine, and we wanted to share with you their latest Corison episode, Drink a Bottle with Cathy Corison and Grace Martin. Opening Grace’s birthyear wine, they discuss what it means to nurture and preserve a family-owned winery. There are three earlier Corison episodes as well, so don’t miss them!
