Our 2018 Merlot has proven to be the top choice among Napa County wines, winning the coveted Best of Napa County award in the North Coast Wine Challenge — a testament that Sawyer stands the test of time.
Brad Warner, our winemaker since 1995, has perfected the quality of our wine, ensuring consistency across vintages. Although our 2018 Merlot has sold out, we highly recommend trying our other Merlot vintages.
I was coming home from work one day and stopped to buy a bottle of wine. It had been a successful day, and I wanted to celebrate.
I selected a 1972 Inglenook Cabernet Sauvignon. I went home to my wife Joanne, and we popped open the bottle. As we swirled and sipped, I said to Joanne, this is the first time I have had great wine.
From then on, my goal was to introduce more people to how delicious a great wine tastes, without spending your whole paycheck. That’s what we’ve created at Sawyer Cellars – delicious yet approachable Napa Valley wines.
I hope you’ll celebrate a great day or just a Tuesday with a bottle of our wine. Let’s make every day great.
Sawyer Cellars produces four very limited production wines from the Napa Valley appellation: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, a red blend – Bradford Meritage, and Sauvignon Blanc. Veteran winemaker Brad Warner has handcrafted the wines of Sawyer Cellars since the very beginning. Purchase wine in our online shop or come visit us in Napa.
