Experience Wine Country at its finest
The Mt. Veeder Experience: Our Mt. Veeder Experience brings you outdoors and up to 2,000-feet elevation to explore the birthplace of Mt. Brave wines. Winemaker Chris Carpenter crafts Mt. Brave bottlings entirely from grapes farmed organically on our Mt. Veeder site. This tour is an up-close immersion into the forces that define Mt. Veeder’s coveted terroir. In the Mayacamas Range at Napa Valley’s western edge, you will feel the cool mountain air, walk the volcanic soils, and deepen your understanding of how rugged the farming conditions are—and how rewarding the results can be.
Mt. Veeder is a place of great natural beauty. Craggy peaks and dense forests of evergreens, oaks, redwoods, madrones, and bay trees loom over the vine rows. Plantable acreage is very limited, and mountain conditions interact with our organic practices to force low yields of tremendous quality. This appellation is revered for characteristics of blue fruits, violets, minerality, and powerful fine tannins that drive exceptional aging.
Your adventure begins at the Mt. Brave Overlook at the base of our high-altitude Malbec block, followed by a private seated tasting. In addition to Mt. Brave releases, you may have the opportunity to sample wines hand-selected from Chris' broader portfolio. Your host will personalize walking distances to suit your group.
