Welcome to Sequioa Grove

Sequoia Grove takes its name from the giant Sequoia trees that dominate our estate on the Rutherford Bench in Napa Valley, California. Family-founded in 1980, we quickly gained a reputation for crafting award winning, Bordeaux style wines that emphasize finesse and balance. Today we are still a boutique winery, producing a limited quantity of ultra-premium wines and specializing in Cabernet Sauvignon. Boasting the first underground cellar in the valley our pioneering spirit continues today with our cutting-edge equipment and winemaking process under the leadership of our winemaker, Mike Trujillo.

Our wines are renowned for their elegance and highly concentrated fruit; they are wines with a distinct sense of place, crafted to express the unique Rutherford terroir. We focus production on three wines: a Carneros Chardonnay, Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon and Reserve Estate Cabernet Sauvignon. Depending on the variety, fermentation is carried out in oak, stainless steel, or a combination of both. All of our wines are bottle-aged at least one year, with the estate reserve bottlings held longer prior to release.

Sequoia Grove’s Estate Vineyard, which is situated in the heart of Napa Valley, is widely recognized as some of the most premium grape-growing land. With a climate similar to Bordeaux which yields wines of rich flavors and depth with substantial tannins and ageing potential. The much acclaimed dust which is unique to the Rutherford Viticultural District imparts a distinct sense of place on all wines made here.

Under our new owners, the Kopf family, we are entering an exciting new phase. We continue to buy some of the best grapes Napa has to offer to supplement the fruit from our own estate in Rutherford. Our equipment is state-of-the-art and Mike Trujillo, our President and Winemaker, is firmly at the helm.
