NAPA VALLEY CABERNET WITH POWER & ELEGANCE

Winegrower Cathy Corison produces artisanal, age-worthy Cabernet Sauvignon that speaks of place, sourcing great benchland vineyards between Rutherford and St. Helena. We invite you to experience a unique glimpse inside a small, family-owned working winery the next time you are in the Napa Valley.

In The Vineyard

July 2026: We have veraison! After the warmest March on record, it’s no surprise that 2026 has brought the earliest veraison in our memory. This is when the hard green berries soften and turn black, beginning to accumulate sugar and flavor. During these long summer days we continue to manage the leaf canopies, getting just the right amount of light and air in to the fruit. March aside, we’re grateful for the moderate weather so far this season, and hope it continues!

Sustainability Accolade!

In November, Corison Winery was presented The Golden Vines Sustainability Award, named in honor of Frédéric Panaïotis, a pioneer in eco-friendly practices in Champagne. Cathy attended the Miami event where this honor was bestowed, and she spoke on two masterclass panels.

Since returning to work at Corison in 2020, Grace has been leading the charge to continually improve our sustainable practices in the winery and vineyard, and it is an honor to get this special shout-out! 

When Less Became More

When Sommelier and Restauranteur Kelsey Glasser asked Cathy and Grace to be a part of a TV feature about women in wine, they jumped at the chance. Here’s a sneak peek of the work in progress!
