| See "Our News" about
the new Tulocay Wine Club!
Few
wine connoisseurs realize that Tulocay is one of the oldest wineries
in Napa Valley. Dating from 1975, Tulocay has been acknowledged
by Napa Valley insiders and old timers as having its own style. While
many wines around the world today are made in the same "international" style,
Tulocay wines are made by traditional methods that reflect the
character of the individual vineyard as expressed by the winemaker.
And they are wines meant to be an integral part of the meal.
Like art, film, literature and politics, wine is an individual taste. One can seek out the highly rated and well publicized wines. That's fine. But how many really express an art form and how many are simply made to garner high scores in wine publications? This is a question that you, the wine drinker, must decide.
A note from Skippy, our Chief Cellar Rat:
If you're looking for White Zinfandel, mass-produced Merlot, or sweet, fruity Chardonnay, go away.
But if your taste tends toward kick-out-the-jambs Cabernets, Zinfandels, Syrahs and Merlots, you've come to the right place.
We also make svelte, subtle, Burgundy-style
Pinot Noirs and (in some years) very classy Chardonnays.
Tulocay's been around since 1975. But not many people have heard about Bill Cadman, its owner and my boss. That's 'cause he believes the wine should reflect the vineyard and the winemaker, not the marketing department.
Our wines are all from small, single vineyards, thus reflecting that place, that location, that vintage.
Peruse our website. Check out the wines. If you have any questions, just give us a call. Chances are the person who answers the phone is the boss himself.
