Welcome to StoneFly Vineyard

With vineyards on Mount Veeder and atop Atlas Peak, StoneFly is able to cultivate the ideal grapes for true varietal character. Robert Parker called StoneFly's ruby-red, delicate, Loire Valley Cabernet Franc "one of the most French-like Cabernet Francs I have tasted from California." | Yountville, CA Phone: 707-836-5616 Website: http://www.stoneflyvineyard.com Appellation: Napa Valley Map to StoneFly vineyards

2006 Cabernet Franc Napa Valley
The StoneFly Vineyard 2006 Napa Valley Cabernet Franc exhibits a dark, rich garnet color and an essence of black cherry with a hint of thyme. It has a peppery nose and a finish rem ... moreiniscent of the classic Chinons of the Loire Valley.
There is a subtle flavor of cocoa as the wine opens up. It displays a medium body and a long smooth finish with supple tannins. Although it is drinking well now, it will continue to improve until 2011 with proper cellaring.

2004 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley
This is StoneFly Vineyard's best vintage to date. It is 100% Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon with aromas of dried cherry and spice and a beautiful balance of lush red currant and sp ... moreice on the palate.
It is a delicious accompaniment to rich cheeses, grilled meats and your favorite chocolate dessert. While ready to drink now, it will continue to develop over the next 3 to 5 years. This is a very limited production and will certainly sell out quickly.
