BOND Winery

Where single-vineyard mastery meets Napa Valley's most coveted hillside terroirs, BOND Winery represents the pinnacle of California Cabernet Sauvignon excellence. This ultra-premium estate has redefined luxury winemaking through an uncompromising pursuit of terroir expression across five meticulously selected vineyard sites.

Under the visionary leadership of winemaker Cory Empting, BOND emerged from a decades-long quest to identify Napa's equivalent of Burgundy's Grand Crus.

After evaluating over 80 potential vineyard sites, only five hillside locations met BOND's exacting standards for soil complexity, microclimate distinction, and elevation advantage. Each vineyard—Melbury, Vecina, St.

Eden, Pluribus, and Quella—represents a unique terroir expression, from northeastern hillside loamy clay to western foothill volcanic alluvium. This meticulous site selection philosophy has established BOND as Napa's most terroir-driven luxury producer. BOND's winemaking philosophy centers on minimal intervention techniques that allow each vineyard's distinct character to shine.

Cory Empting crafts five separate single-vineyard Cabernet Sauvignons, each bearing its vineyard's name and expressing unique soil signatures and microclimatic influences. These investment-grade wines consistently earn critical acclaim for their precision, complexity, and aging potential. Production remains intentionally limited, with each vineyard bottling representing the ultimate expression of its specific terroir.

The wines command premium pricing and allocation-only distribution, making them highly sought-after by collectors and connoisseurs worldwide. The BOND experience epitomizes exclusivity and sophistication. Perched adjacent to Harlan Estate on a scenic Napa hillside, the contemporary winery architecture seamlessly integrates with the natural landscape, offering breathtaking valley views.

Private tastings are available strictly by appointment, providing intimate access to these rare single-vineyard expressions.

The tasting experience focuses on terroir education, allowing visitors to understand the subtle differences between each vineyard site through guided comparative tastings. These exclusive sessions often include library wines and unreleased vintages, creating unforgettable experiences for serious wine enthusiasts.
