The Return
Versant began high above the Napa Valley on Pritchard Hill, where thin soils, elevation and exposure created wines of uncommon concentration and character.
Production was small. The wines were scarce. And eventually, Versant disappeared.
The mountain remained. The name did too.
Now Versant begins again.
Origin — Pritchard Hill
The original Versant vineyard was established high on Pritchard Hill in the late 1990s. Its steep terrain, rocky volcanic soils and elevation placed it among one of Napa Valley’s most distinctive Cabernet-growing environments.
Versant produced Cabernet Sauvignon in extremely limited quantities while fruit from the vineyard also found its way into wines made by respected Napa producers.
Eventually, the original property became part of the estate assembled for Continuum. Versant ceased production. Its chapter on the mountain closed.
Three wines. 412 cases.
The 2024 Release
Three wines. 412 cases.
The same standard.
Philosophy
The new Versant takes its bearings from its first chapter: the seriousness, the restraint, the character of the mountain. It does not imitate it.
Cabernet first. Small production. Serious vineyards. No unnecessary noise. A contemporary Napa Valley identity, built on the reasons the name was worth keeping.
The wine should speak before we do.
