Part 3 of Tom’s final recordings takes us to St. Helena Cabernet Sauvignon and the barrel’s influence on the w**e.

Tom talks through what oak brings to the Cabernet and how it becomes part of the finished w**e. It’s a gift to hear him share his knowledge in his own words.

Pour a glass of our 2023 St. Helena Cabernet Sauvignon and listen along.

Calling all w**e dogs! 🐾🍷

"Norma Jean, I know you're the legit w**e dog for Patent so consider this your official challenge: strike your best pose alongside your favorite Patent W**es bottle. We know you’ve got the cute Dalmatian thing going, now show us the paw-fect pairing! 📸" ~ Little Annie (Patent W**es Sauvignon Blanc fan), Colorado

One of the things we loved most about Tom was the way he could take something you thought you knew about w**e and turn it completely on its head, usually with a story, a smile, and that unmistakable twinkle in his eye.

In Part Two of Tom’s final recorded w**e tasting, he shares a fascinating difference between the way many Europeans and Americans approach a tasting.

Why the difference? Pour yourself a glass and listen as Tom explains it in his own unforgettable way.

Which way do you taste—white before red, or red before white? 🍷

A rosé with a true sense of place. 🌸 Crafted from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon grown in Napa Valley’s Oak Knoll District, our 2024 Rosé reflects the cooler character of this special region. Morning fog and refreshing breezes from San Pablo Bay create a long, gradual growing season, allowing the grapes to develop beautifully ripe flavors while retaining their natural acidity and freshness.

The result is a vibrant, beautifully balanced rosé with aromas of berries and cherries, followed by delicate notes of licorice, orange zest, honey and spice. Bright, expressive and distinctly Oak Knoll.

Twist off the cap, pour a glass and taste the place that shaped it.

Tom Rinaldi: The Final Recordings
Part One - What Made W**e Fun

It is difficult to find the words to introduce this series. What began as an evening shared with an incredible group of people, talking, tasting w**e, laughing and listening to Tom tell his stories, became something none of us could have known it would be: one of his final recordings.

Less than 24 hours after this Zoom w**e tasting was recorded, we lost Tom.

In this first clip, Tom talks about what made w**emaking fun. His answer is wonderfully Tom - honest, thoughtful and filled with the warmth and humor that made time spent with him so special.

Over the coming weeks, we will share more moments from this remarkable evening. Not simply as final recordings, but as a chance to raise one more glass with Tom, to hear his voice, learn from his extraordinary life in w**e and remember the man we were so incredibly fortunate to know.

We miss him beyond words. We hope sharing these moments helps keep his stories, and his unmistakable spirit, alive. 🍷

A round of golf, followed by a glass of something truly special. ⛳️🥂

Crafted by the legendary Tom Rinaldi, our Sauvignon Blanc is a beautiful field blend he loved creating, and the perfect w**e to enjoy after a day on the course. Bright, refreshing and full of character, it’s a fitting way to raise a glass to Tom and the remarkable w**es he left behind.

We love hearing your thoughts on our w**es! Huge thanks to James Melendez for sharing his thoughts on our 2024 Rosé!

"A beautifully balanced and expressive Napa Valley rosé.

NOSE: Wild strawberry leads, joined by graphite, subtle spice, and delicate red florals.

PALATE: Balanced and expressive, with mountain strawberry and nuanced red cherry, layered with gentle spice and a hint of fresh green herbs."

How do you say “busted” without saying “busted”? 👀🐾

Norma Jean insists she was simply checking that the cheese was worthy of our Diamond Mountain Cabernet. We’re not entirely convinced…

What’s your favorite cheese to pair with Cabernet?
