The history of Cakebread includes a few of America’s most important wine pioneers. Jack Cakebread started it all back in 1972. Robert Mondavi was the original enologist with Larry Wara as his consultant. The two had to make the wine at neighbor Keenan winery while they were waiting for their world-class winery to be designed and built by William Turnbull. How’s that for star power?Â
For only the second time ever, I have both the family’s Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay at the same time. I don’t know if this is a thank you for our decades of support, or an offer that won’t see its way back to us ever again but while it’s available you know I have to strike when the iron is hot! Each mixed six-pack includes 3 bottles each of the following flagship wines:
-Cakebread Napa Valley Chardonnay 2023
-Cakebread Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2021
