Fe Wine Dinner

 $100 per person, all-inclusive

 

 

Fe Wines are some of the hottest new wines we've brought into Taylor's since our last trip to Napa.  Fe makes only two terroir-driven bordeaux style blends each vintage, both extremely limited and very highly rated, including their 100 Point Fe 2019. They make only what their gorgeous little vineyard offers them each year.  Planted on Spring Mountain to Cabernet, Cabernet Franc, Malbec, and Petit Verdot, winemaker Aaron Pott crafts a simply poetic Cabernet and a silky 26 Blend.  Fe is pronounced Fee, named after the Atomic symbol for Iron, which is very prevalent in their soil.

Enjoy an evening of delicious bites, a Champagne reception followed by an exclusive tasting, of Fe's 2018 and 2019 wines in the comfort of a private home in Wakefield Plantation.  This event is open to 16 guests.

Check out more Fe details:

Fe occupies an elevated bench in the narrowest stretch of the Napa Valley, amid nearly two thousand acres of untamed parkland. Our vineyard is buffered by redwood, manzanita, ponderosa pine, and wild native grasses.

This pocket of Spring Mountain feels far removed from the rest of wine country. Ghostly Spanish mosses hang from ancient oak trees; warm fragrant breezes and birdsong are often the only sounds we hear. Our wine is an expression of this unparalleled terroir. 

We are stewards of land belonging to foxes, wild peacocks, bluebirds, and coyotes. Whether building with reclaimed timber or farming organically, we are advocates for the natural sanctuary our vineyard inhabits, on this lower slope of the Mayacamas Range.

We follow what the terroir dictates. We have planted fruit trees, herbs, and vegetable beds, and we have established a vineyard devoted to the classic noble grape varieties of Bordeaux. They are the most honest translators of this place, and our vine rows require very little intervention.

Seven years of deliberate viticulture went into our first vintage. Our six densely planted blocks of vines are cane-pruned to create a shade canopy in the heat of summer. We plant nitrogen-fixing cover crops rather than artificially amending our soil, and we fight off pests by providing habitat for winged predators.

Our east-facing vines enjoy a temperate microclimate. At daybreak, as the silhouette of the Vaca Mountains appears over the Napa River, fogs roll in from the west and the south. A forested preserve shoulders our estate on two sides, further cooling our vines with its shaded embrace.
