Since then, John and Diane have introduced Stanley's Selection Cabernet. The Napa Valley intrigues John the geologist with its variations in climate and soil. He produces Stanley's Selection from six tiny vineyards chosen for their unique micro-climates, sound farm management and proven consistency. Wine reviewers consistently applaud Stanley's Selection with superlatives like Top 10, impressive, top echelon and legendary. The completion of wine caves in 1991 brought the wine making home to the estate after a 100 year hiatus.
Caves provide various winemaking advantages.
Constancy of temperature and high relative humidity create ideal aging conditions for red wines. Today, Diane and John and their son Trent Moffett specialize in producing fine Cabernets from single vineyard sources.
