Tucked under the dramatic palisades of the Stags Leap District, right along Silverado Trail sits the newest member to the PlumpJack and CADE family, Odette Estate.
The Stags Leap District’s distinctive soils are famous for imparting unique characteristics to wines—including extraordinary power delivered with delicately articulated structure, varietal aromas and flavors. This strong, feminine personality recalls the charisma of Odette, a woman who appears throughout history, literature and dance. The name “Odette” even shows up in the wine world, at the infamous Paris Wine Tasting of 1976, in which a red wine from Stags Leap District took top honors over the French.
Set on 45 acres, with a total of 36 planted mainly to Cabernet Sauvignon, our Winemaker, Jeff Owens seeks to harness the strong character of the terroir in order to craft wines that are both bold and elegant. We look forward to these first releases from the estate beginning in 2015, and we invite you to join us today for a unique experience tasting wines from some of the area’s finest vineyards.
