Since 2006, the Dellar & Friedkin families have produced an award-winning single-vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon on the rocky soils in the eastern foothills of Napa Valley. The 8.3 acre vineyard on Soda Canyon Road sits south of Stags Leap and below Atlas Peak. Only 100 cases are produced each year.
As a restauranteur for over 40 years, Michael Dellar appreciates purchasing red wines with extra bottle age rendering them ready to drink upon release, but with a long future. Stardust is such a wine and the 2015 is the current vintage release.
