Napa Redwoods Estate 1999 Castle Rock Vineyard - Alden Perry Reserve Red (Mount Veeder)
- $56
A huge, extracted wine, with massive fruit and berry flavors that flood the palate. Framed in thick but soft tannins, it’s opulent in the mouth, but a stinging bite of youthful acidity almost demands aging through 2006.

Napa Redwoods Estate 1999 Castle Rock Vineyard Merlot (Mount Veeder)
- $42
Blackberry, black cherry, violets, pepper, espresso, chocolate, and an array of oriental spices are wrapped in a lush, velvety texture. Despite the massive fruit, the wine is dry, and the tannins are a wonder.

Napa Redwoods Estate 2001 Castle Rock Vineyard Merlot (Mount Veeder)
- $38
This well-crafted Merlot has pleasant flavors of plums, blackberries and coffee that are wrapped in smooth tannins. It is very dry, and feels round and supple in the mouth. There are some less ripe herbal flavors that limit ageability, but it’s a good table wine.

Napa Redwoods Estate 2000 Alden Perry Reserve Castle Rock Vineyard Red Wine (Mount Veeder)
- $48
Smooth and velvety drinking, and a very good food wine for its modulated berry and herb flavors and firm acids. This is a wine that does not overwhelm with size, but it is elegant and balanced and shows its pedigree well.

Napa Redwoods Estate 2004 Yates Family Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon (Mount Veeder)
- $60
Made very much in the modern cult style, this is an enormously rich, soft, immediately delicious wine, with a milk chocolate edge to the blackberry, cherry and new oak flavors. It’s not an ager; drink now.

Napa Redwoods Estate 2004 Yates Family Vineyard Cabernet Franc (Mount Veeder)
- Online Exclusive
- $45
Softer and gentler than a Cabernet Sauvignon, this wine, from one of the best but least known of Napa’s mountain appellations, offers a wealth of oak-influenced cherry flavors. It finishes dry and spicy and complex.

Napa Redwoods Estate 2001 Alden Perry Reserve Red (Mount Veeder)
- $48
Cherry, berry and herb flavors are buried inside bigtime tannins that numb the palate, in this dry, smoothly textured wine. It’s questionable whether the wine has enough stuffing for the cellar.
