Educated Guess Cabernet Sauvignon

Founder Mark Albrecht started the winery in 2005 to prove Napa Valley wine could be both exceptional and accessible, selling his house to fund the first vintage; the first wine, Educated Guess Napa County Cabernet Sauvignon, became the foundation of the brand.

Our Pinot Noir is truly a labor of love. Handcrafted in every way to ensure the wine has plenty of lush fruit to balance out the crisp acidity that makes the Sonoma Coast unique.

    This dark and spicy Pinot displays dramatic black cherry and cola aromas on the nose, while the palate brings rich raspberry, earthy shiitake and cinnamon flavors front and center. Plush tannin and echoes of cigar box and licorice emerge across the training finish.
