Producer Information: Cakebread Cellars

Founded in 1973 by Jack and Dolores Cakebread in Rutherford, Napa Valley, Cakebread Cellars has built its legacy on a commitment to sustainable viticulture and meticulous small-lot winemaking. The family-owned winery is deeply rooted in the heart of California’s premier wine region, where gravelly soils and cool morning fogs shape the character of their estate-grown grapes. Their philosophy centers on expressing the unique terroir of each vineyard site through careful hand-harvesting and gentle fermentation techniques. While their Cabernet Sauvignon captures much of the valley’s power, Cakebread also crafts elegant Chardonnay from Carneros and vibrant Sauvignon Blanc that highlights Napa’s diverse microclimates. Their portfolio extends to Merlot, Pinot Noir from Anderson Valley, and a crisp Rosé, each reflecting a thoughtful approach to varietal expression without venturing into spirits or non-wine beverages.
