$260.00Freemark Abbey Napa Valley
Freemark Abbey's history dates back over 125 years. In 1886, Josephine Tychson established the original winery along Route 29 in St. Helena where Freemark Abbey still stands. She began a history of innovation there, becoming one of the first woman winegrowers on record. Though many consider their wines a religious experience… they've never been run by monks. The current name of the winery was created in 1939, when the three owners - Charles Freeman, Markquand Foster and Abbey Ahern - combined their names to form the moniker "Freemark Abbey." In 1976, wine expert Steven Spurrier conducted a legendary blind tasting in Paris - pitting the upstart wines of California against the establishment of France. Of the 12 American wineries chosen to compete, only Freemark Abbey had two wines represented - a Chardonnay and a Cabernet Sauvignon. In an upset that shocked the wine world, California wines won every category of the tasting, putting Napa Valley firmly on the world stage. We encourage you to taste a classic Napa wine, one that continues to set the bar for the rest of Napa and the world.
