Dear Wine Lover,

Mark Neal’s family has been growing and managing grapes in Napa Valley for almost forty years and currently manages nearly 1,500 acres of vineyards for some of Napa’s most prestigious and renowned wineries. Neal Family Vineyards was created in 1997 to take advantage of Mark Neal’s experience with grapes grown in the Napa Valley. Many of the sites Mark uses to source grapes have been under Neal’s vineyard management since 1968.

 

2003 Neal Family Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 750mL $44.89 Magnums $89.89

Strikingly deep and dark ruby in color. An intoxicating mixture of cherries, black cassis, sweet oak, violet and cigar box spice rises from the glass. Layers of ripe Bing cherries, raspberries and semi-sweet cocoa dominate the mid-palate giving this wine a nice backbone and plenty of structure. The fruit is present with firm tannin and a nice acidity provides a beautiful balance. Brown sugar and a crème brulée induced finish that lingers for more than 30 seconds. Not a flamboyant, in your face type of wine, but rather an elegant, restrained and seductive style to lure you in. The 2003 will reward you handsomely after cellaring for some additional time or if decanted when young.

 

2003 Neal Family Rutherford Napa Valley Zinfandel $21.89

This Zinfandel comes from Mark Neal’s Home Ranch in the heart of Rutherford, one of Napa Valley’s premium grape growing districts. This vintage includes a small percentage of Petite Sirah that complements the rich, dark fruit intensity and the spicy, berry character of our Zinfandel fruit. Ripe black fruit aromas are mixed with delightful spices and vanilla from aging in oak barrels. Luscious black cherry and brambly-berry fruit mixed with touches of pepper and spice contribute to an extensive array of flavors. 299 cases produced.

 

We are also offering a maximum of 2 bottles of each of the 2002 Neal Family single vineyard Cabernet’s.
