Distinctive, truly enticing, and unconventional. A “hidden gem” in the Napa Valley
The Vineyards and Winery of Tres Sabores are nestled against the western hills of Rutherford where the winemaker and owner, Julie Johnson, and her family live and grow dry-farmed, organically-certified Cabernet Sauvignon, Zinfandel, Petite Sirah and Petit Verdot, Olives, Pomegranates, and Meyer lemons. The portfolio comprises two sumptuous estate bottlings: ‘Rutherford Perspective’ Cabernet Sauvignon and Zinfandel as well as a delightful Zinfandel-based blend: ¿Por qué No?. Tres Sabores is also fortunate to source grapes and make a zesty Sauvignon blanc from Farina Vineyard from Sonoma Mountain, a lush and radiantly fruit-filled Petite Sirah from Guarino Vineyard in Calistoga and a dry, spicy (dedicated) Rosé from the estate Zinfandel and Calistoga Petite Sirah. Julie also makes wines exclusively for SABOR Wine Club members, who also enjoy special access to events, zooms, and private, in-home tastings.
Tres Sabores wines celebrate the creativity of winemaking, encourage you to explore your own ideas about taste as well as expand your personal enjoyment of wine “beyond terroir”.
Guests to the winery are often welcomed personally by the winemaker Julie. They join one of her hospitality team members for
a strolling tour of the winery and cave as well as the vineyards & culinary, infusion gardens on the ranch. Tastings feature at least five wines from the portfolio as well as estate olive oil & pomegranates (in season). Visitors may make additional arrangements for a vineyard-side picnic gathering under the canopy of the century-old olive grove, food pairings, vineyard & winery immersion experiences, or barrel tastings. A dog friendly ranch, the resident Goldens, ‘Cava’ & ‘Bouzy Rouge’ love making new friends.
Tres Sabores: the “Three Savory Flavors”, or “Tastes” in every glass–those of the vine, the terroir and the spirit that good company brings to every table.
