Napa Valley, California

Napa Valley, where Cabernet Sauvignon is “King.”  The valley itself in Northern California is not very big, but it is home to some of the most expensive and prestigious vineyards in California. Napa is separated from Sonoma and Central Coast by two sets mountain ranges: the Mayacamas Mountains to the west and the Vaca Mountains to the east. Being in a valley, this region can heat up pretty quickly. However, there are cooling influences like fog and ocean breezes from the San Pablo Bay that help to moderate the temperature within the valley. With more heat comes more concentrated, fuller-bodied wines, making this the perfect place for Cabernet Sauvignon. Other primary red grapes of focus are Zinfandel, Merlot, Syrah, and Cabernet Franc. The principal white varieties to look for here are Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc. You may also find Pinot Noir in the more southerly area of Los Carneros AVA where it can get cool enough to produce high-quality Pinot Noir. Featured AVA’s include Howell Mountain, Calistoga, St. Helena, Mount Veeder, Los Carneros, Stags Leap District, Oakville, and Rutherford. 

'Here's to you!'

Here’s to you!

VENN Wine Co. was established in 2013 by mother & son winemakers Jacky and Scott Young. The seed for our mission was drawn from a question: how do classic, old world techniques influence our modern notion of wine growing? That question simmered for many years as we quietly worked through our ideas, offering our wines only to favorite restaurants, wine bars and bottle shops. At last, a complete lineup is available to all for the first time in 2021.

“Our family has always shared a love of wine. Today, we produce a small portfolio of Napa grown, Bordeaux-inspired wines from our estate vineyard, Scott and Jacky working together on the winemaking, Mary and Jim in winery operations. We live and work onsite, hand-crafting our limited production wines for balance and elegance, and welcoming guests to the Napa gem that is Young Inglewood. We look forward to raising a glass with you soon.”

– Jacky, Jim, Mary, and Scott
