Winemaker Notes

Visually Riva di Ponente displays a saturated dark plum color. The nose fills with aromas of vanilla bean, maple syrup, and very dark chocolate along with vine-ripened blackberry and boysenberry. The palate continues with the aforementioned descriptors and builds with layers of ripe plum, hints of graham cracker, and blackberry pie. The impressive concentration and generous, ret rich and silky tannins are well worth the low yield in the vineyard. A warm & lingering finish quintessentially portrays what we have come to expect from the afternoon, sun-kissed blocks that comprise the Ponente label.

About Winery

Located at 2100 feet in elevation on the Vaca range in Napa Valley, the Cimarossa “red hilltop” Vineyard flourishes in its native and natural setting. What might seem like a simple score given the farm plots that are available in the wine country, in reality, took Dino and Corry over 10 years to locate. One visit will confirm—it was worth the wait, with unrivaled 360 degree views of mountains, wilderness, and the valley floor below.

The vineyard build-out adhered to one driving force principle—to leave the property’s natural surroundings in their most native state.

This philosophy became a way of life and a constant reminder of the true fruits that the mountain can bear when left to its own devices.
