Tierra Roja Vineyard & Winery
Welcome to Tierra Roja, a special vineyard and a special wine that will transport you to the red earth of the eastern hills of Oakville with each sip. One vineyard, one wine. We are located in the heart of the Oakville appellation, at the center of the Napa Valley in California. Surrounded by other first class vineyards that you may know; Rudd, Screaming Eagle, Joseph Phelp’s Bacchus, Dalla Valle’s Maya, Plumpjack and more.
Linda Neal has been growing grapes at Tierra Roja Vineyard since 1987. In September of 2007, the very first release took place of a wine made solely from the Cabernet Sauvignon grapes grown there. It was the 2004 vintage and was quickly met with acclaim from wine professionals and consumers alike. Winemaker, David DeSante, created a luscious wine that really brought out the unique flavors of this heritage site. There were only 160 cases produced and was sold out by May.
The 2005 is being released beginning September 15, 2008 and the flavors are even more incredible than last year. Linda and David are very excited about this Tierra Roja and hope that it will become one of your favorite wines. There are 250 cases made of this 2005 vintage. Please make your way around the website to sign up for our mailing list, find tasting notes, history, events and more. Thank you for visiting!
