Producer Information

Morlet Family Vineyards is a wine producer located in the Napa Valley subregion of St. Helena, California. It produces a range of single-vineyard wines from Napa Valley and Sonoma County, from the area’s key grape varieties: Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Syrah. The estate was founded by Jodie and Luc Morlet, whose family owns Pierre Morlet & Fils in Champagne, France. The estate consists of vineyards in Oakville, St. Helena, and Knights Valley, and has long-terrm contracts with vineyards in Fort Ross-Seaview, Russian River Valley, Bennett Valley, Dry Creek and Napa Valley. The grapes are picked by hand, then destemmed and double-sorted when they reach the St. Helena winery. Native yeasts carry out the fermentation process, and wines are aged in French oak barrels before release. Morlet Family Vineyard’s wines are sold through mailing list and in high-profile restaurants. Top-rated wines from the estate include the white Bordeaux-style blend La Proportion Dore, the Bouquet Garni Syrah, the Coeur de Valle Cabernet Sauvignon. There are also multiple expressions of Pinot Noir from the Fort Ross-Seaview AVA.
