2002 Krupp Brothers Black Bart Napa Valley Port - 375ml

Rising high above marine layer fog in the Vaca Mountains with red, volcanic rocky soil, Stageoach Vineyard produces some of Napa Valley's most coveted fruit. Dr. Jan Krupp hand selected his favorite blocks for Krupp Brothers to create wines of great intensity, nuance and structure.

Jan and his brother Bart fell in love with the rugged mountain site that would become one of Napa's most iconic vineyards. Despite its harsh  landscape  – riddled with rocks and boulders, and choked with chaparral with no known water source and no road access – they saw the makings of a world-class vineyard.  In 1995, with the help of a water witch, the removal of more than 1 million pounds of rock, and the construction of a snaking road requiring 135 legal documents, Stagecoach Vineyard was born. Today, Stagecoach is the largest contiguous vineyard in Napa, providing fruit for some of the area's finest wineries.
