ABOUT REYNOLDS FAMILY WINERY
Steve and Suzie Reynolds never imagined that what started as a desire to make a few cases of wine and sell some fruit on the side would grow into an internationally recognized brand and lifelong career. Flashback to 1994, Steve sells his dental practice and they relocate to Napa Valley where they purchased a rundown chicken farm with a boarded-up house and a few goats. The following year, they planted the 14-acre property exclusively with cabernet sauvignon. Their vineyard sits in the shadow of Atlas Peak, just south of Stags Leap, where it enjoys cool breezes from San Pablo Bay to the south. The growing conditions are ideal for producing big, rich, complex wines. They released their first vintage in 1999 and just two years later were already gaining popularity as a small boutique producer in Napa. Over the next 10 years, Steve would perfect his craft and in 2011, the Stag’s Leap Cabernet Sauvignon is named #10 wine of the world by Wine Enthusiast, in addition to a few other accolades. Today, they have grown to produce around 6500 cases annually and distribute to 20 different States. Steve is now making several different cabernets, red blends, and a few white wines. He has also taken on a few custom crush clients such as 7 Lady Vineyards, and acquired a 20 acre vineyard in Coombsville which will be known as their “Persistence Vineyard”.
TIMELINE - A cocktail hour will begin at 6 pm and guests will have the opportunity to self-tour the Entrance Level of Dover Hall.
