Our 'Corley Reserve' wines are special bottlings that carry the quality hallmark of our family name. These are small and unique blends, typically from single vineyards, single blocks and sub-sections within our estate vineyards that span the length of Napa Valley. Our 'Corley Reserve' bottlings tend to be bold, full-bodied, rich in texture. These wines can age gracefully for up to 40 years.

 

Our 'Estate' wines  reflect the graceful balance of our distinct vineyards estate vineyards that span three sub-appellations the length of Napa Valley. Our 'Estate' wines tend to be medium-bodied, full in texture and with a smoother, softer tannin profile. The 'Estate' wines are blended to be enjoyed in their youth, but have proven to age gracefully for up to 20+ years.

 

Barrel fermented and aged to produce the creamy richness and depth that is the hallmark of our Montreaux style. Winemaker Chris Corley employs a solera style mult-vintage blending of our grand cuvee. These wines are truly handcrafted and handmade in the traditional Methode Champenoise of re-fermenting the wine in each individual bottle.
