The Estate

The dedication of the Trefethen family is manifest in every aspect of the operation, from the soil to the table, including sustainable farming, thoughtful winemaking, and gracious hospitality. Eshcol rounds out the Trefethen portfolio as an introduction to our estate-grown and sustainably produced wines. Crafted for those looking for Napa Valley quality in an accessible wine, Eshcol delivers incredible value.

Wine Making

The summer months, from June through September, were all cooler than average, which slowed down the ripening process and allowed for fantastic flavor development. The yields were lower than usual, given the drought conditions, but the resulting wines are all excellent and refl ect our unique location in the Oak Knoll District at the cooler southern end of Napa Valley.

Food Suggestions

Try this wine with smoked meats, caramelized vegetables and slow-cooked foods, which will complement its rich, earthy nature. Winery Chef Chris Kennedy recommends grilled onions and peppers with spicy sausage.
