Crafted by Winemaker Nigel Kinsman and Consulting Oenologist Michel Rolland, Annulus wines are a reflection of our family’s love of great Cabernet Sauvignon. Small by design, with fewer than 700 cases made, each release is a tribute to our favorites among Napa’s heritage vineyards and the connections we forge in making and sharing our wines.

Beckstoffer Las Piedras Vineyard
Cabernet Sauvignon

2021

This 100% Cabernet Sauvignon is harvested from Block D1 of the Beckstoffer Las Piedras Vineyard located on the western bench of the St. Helena AVA at the foot of Spring Mountain. The signature profile of this famed heritage vineyard includes powerful black fruit notes that rest on a backbone of minerality.

“Lush, forward and seductive in feel, with creamy notes of mulberry, blackberry and plum sauce that glide over a polished, fine-grained structure.”

— James Molesworth, Wine Spectator, August 2024

Vine Hill Ranch Vineyard
Cabernet Sauvignon

2021

This 100% Cabernet Sauvignon is harvested from Block 2 of Vine Hill Ranch Vineyard, which sits on the western bench of the Oakville AVA in the foothills of the Mayacamas Mountains. Vine Hill Ranch Vineyard famously delivers fruit with lush aromatics and fine tannins.

“This is rich and dense, offering steeped plum, black currant and boysenberry reduction notes welded together with graphite, licorice root and walnut husk accents. There’s a broad feel and a deep tug of warm loam through the finish, with ample energy in reserve.”

Napa Valley
Cabernet Sauvignon

2021

The synergy of Nigel Kinsman’s winemaking and Michel Rolland’s mastery of blends is on full display with this classically structured wine showcasing what we believe is some of the best fruit of the Napa Valley. Composed of 95% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Petit Verdot, this wine is crafted with hand-selected lots from our heritage vineyard sites, the 1520 Vineyard on Diamond Mountain, and the Bench Vineyard in the Stags Leap District.

“A textbook version, offering ripe, juicy plum and blackberry fruit laced with light notes of iris, anise and bramble that carry through the juicy, earth- and toast-tinged finish. Drink now through 2036.”
