Some of the most important work of the season happens in the dark.

Our team took to the vineyard beneath the night sky to hand-pick fruit for our Napa Valley Chardonnay. These cool, quiet hours help preserve the freshness and integrity of the fruit, setting the stage for another vintage that reflects the timeless character of Freemark Abbey.

Harvest 2026 marks not only the beginning of a new vintage, but the continuation of a story 140 years in the making.

A little recognition for a w**e we can't stop pouring this summer.

Our 2023 Viognier was featured by Robb Report as one of Napa Valley's must-try white w**es, and we couldn't agree more. Bright, expressive, and endlessly enjoyable, it's the perfect companion for warm afternoons and long evenings.

The Bosché Vineyard is one of Napa Valley’s most historic Cabernet Sauvignon vineyards.

Since the 1970 vintage, Bosché Vineyard has been an enduring part of the Freemark Abbey story. One of California’s earliest vineyard-designate w**es, it represents a commitment to craftsmanship, provenance, and place.

Set in the heart of the Rutherford Bench, Bosché is defined by its gravelly soils, exceptional drainage, and remarkable ability to produce Cabernet Sauvignon of depth, structure, and longevity.

For nearly five decades, Freemark Abbey has had the privilege of stewarding this extraordinary vineyard through every vintage, crafting w**es that honor its singular character.

Each bottle reflects more than a growing season. It reflects generations of vineyard stewardship, thoughtful w**emaking, and an unwavering connection to Rutherford.

Powerful yet poised. Structured yet graceful.
The Bosché Vineyard continues to define what makes Rutherford Cabernet Sauvignon so sought after by collectors around the world.

Fifty years ago, Freemark Abbey was the only California w**ery to submit both a red and a white w**e to the historic Judgement of Paris.

Today, we’re raising a glass to that defining moment when our 1969 Cabernet Sauvignon and 1972 Pinot Chardonnay helped change the course of w**e history forever. From the tasting tables of Paris to the pages of history, these w**es proved that Napa Valley belonged on the world stage.

Here’s to 50 years of legacy. And to the moments that continue to define us.

Recently receiving 95 points from , our 2018 Sycamore Cabernet Sauvignon is the perfect w**e to add to your holiday list this season.

"Intense blueberry and violet aromas are joined by savory wild herb notes, surely contributed by the surrounding madrone and bay laurels in the vineyard. There is plenty of black and blue fruit, rich loamy earth tones and powerful, sculpted tannins framed by firm acidity. Finishes long and minerally. Calls for short rib or seasoned, grilled ribeye, nicely salted." - Decanter, June 2022.

Today is the final day to order and receive your w**es in time to celebrate the holidays.
