The Napa Valley Appellation

Size – only 30 miles long and 5 miles wide

• 1/8 the size of Bordeaux; roughly the size of Cote d’Or

Diversity – one of the smallest yet most diverse wine regions in the world

• Elevations range from sea level to 2,600 ft above sea level
• 33 different soil series with 100 soil variations
• Mediterranean climate, which covers only 2% of the earth

Small production with a big impact

• Only 4% of California wine grapes come from Napa Valley
• Yet it accounts for 10% of California’s vineyards
• And 34% of the California wine industry impact on the U.S. economy

Optical Sorting at St. Supéry Estate

• Started with the 2012 vintage.
• Delta R2 Vistalys:
• Grapes are sorted depending on color

and shape.

• Undesirable materials are removed.
• The Delta R2 Vistalys can sort up to 10

tons/hour.

• Michael Scholz opts for 4 to 6

tons/hour to further enhance quality.

• St. Supéry Estate is one of the first

wineries in Napa Valley to use this technology.

• Other wineries using optical sorters

include: Opus One, Quintessa, and Hall

The grapes travel from the shaker table  elevator conveyor  oscillys destemmer  secondary shaker table  optical sorter where the fruit is scanned and an “air knife” separates the berries and undesirable materials.

A Wine & Packaging Evolution

The Wine Vineyards Sourced entirely from our Dollarhide and Rutherford Estate Vineyards. Fruit from our higher elevation Dollarhide vineyards provide structure, while fruit from

• ur Rutherford vineyards provide the soft, supple

qualities of the Rutherford Bench. Sorting 2012 marks the first vintage that we sorted all of the fruit in the Napa Valley Estate Cabernet Sauvignon. Both optical and double hand sorting were employed, resulting in a greater purity of fruit, excellent layers of flavor and fantastic structure. Oak Maturation Barrel aged for 18 months in 100% French oak, 34% new French oak. Vintage Excellent rainfall in March relieved the long dry spell that persisted throughout the winter. A warm spring and moderate to hot summer followed, providing excellent ripening weather. September and October were also warm, allowing for an even and progressive harvest. The Package Designed by Jeanne Greco Bottle A sleek, subtly tapered bottle that widens at the “shoulders,” chosen with environmental awareness in mind. Capsule A matte black with the St. Supéry monogram embossed in gold on the top. Front Label Inspired by St. Supéry’s Dollarhide Estate Vineyard at dawn during harvest, the colors draw from the deep blues, purples and greens on the hills as the sun begins to rise over the ranch. The image of the vineyard captures the soft, warm glow of the first rays of sun. Back Label 2012 marks the first vintage of red wine to carry the Certified Napa Green Land and Winery logos, demonstrating our commitment to sustainable farming and production practices. The line “Estate grown, produced and bottled,” assures our customers that we have complete control over all of our vineyards and our winemaking process, enabling us to provide consistency and to continuously improve quality.

“In the early 1970’s, Robert Mondavi intrigued

me with the beautiful varietal wines his winery, and others, were producing in the Napa

• Valley. It sparked an idea and a love for the

uniqueness of this place. I spent the next eight years searching for the ideal property to plant and found our family’s Estate Vineyards in Napa Valley. My vision was to draw on my family’s winemaking history in Europe, incorporate new techniques and philosophies, and establish varietal vineyards and a winery in the best possible location in the Valley.”
