"Each vintage we focus on creating wines of great depth and complexity, yet already drinkable upon release. We recognize that some buyers are concerned with choosing wine for dinner, while some are collecting wines to store in their cellars, and we produce wines to serve both markets. Our goal is to provide superb, enjoyable wines vintage after vintage."Walter Raymond, winemaker NAPA VALLEY RESERVES Stylish and well-balanced, these wines are produced from selected vineyards throughout the Napa Valley . Rich, ripe fruit characteristics are evident in all the wines, balanced by the influence from oak aging. The consistently superb quality has earned these wines a very devoted following. RAYMOND GENERATIONS Displaying the family's five generations of dedication to excellence, Generations wines reflect meticulous care from the winemakers. Hand selected during harvest, the Generations lots are set aside to receive extended barrel and bottle aging. Complex and intense, with a lingering finish, these wines have the structure and potential for long term cellaring if desired. RAYMOND ESTATES Focusing on Monterey and Napa Valley vineyards for the initial releases, the Estates Series offers balanced, concentrated wines. Winemaking decisions are based on the characteristics of each growing region for these wines, resulting in distinctive wines reflecting the best flavor characteristics of their appellations. RAYMOND AMBERHILL These California appellation wines are traditional blends from several of the state's prime grape growing regions. Ripe, concentrated fruit from Napa Valley combines with grapes from cooler growing regions to produce medium-bodied, flavorful wines with excellent balance.
