Family Wine in Napa Valley
Euclid Wines is a true father-son venture.
After 30 years in the wine business making primarily high-end Cabernet blends, my son approached me with a proposal to make wine together. I have high hopes that this will inspire my grandchildren as they get older to join us in our venture.
Everything begins in the vineyard. But, we are able to determine the method of fermentation and aging to make the style of wine we envision. Our goal is to create a wine of elegance with fruit intensity, fine tannins, silky texture using our experience in the vineyard, knowledge of fermentation, blending and barrel aging.

The Journey Begins in the Vineyard
Our grapes come from a vineyard on the North-East side of Howell Mountain at an elevation of 800 to 1000 feet with shallow, rocky soils. The vines are tightly spaced to promote stress to produce small berries with intense fruit flavors and a great balance of acidity and pH. The nights are cool and the days are warm with very good sun exposure which allows the fruit to mature in balance.
