    In 1968, the Trefethen family purchased seven farms surrounding a magnificent, but run-down, 19th-century winery in southern Napa Valley and created Trefethen Family Vineyards. At the time, there were fewer than 30 working wineries in the Napa Valley. True to the family’s original vision of creating a classic wine estate, they have never purchased outside grapes. Instead, they take extraordinary care of their two sustainably farmed estate vineyards in the Oak Knoll District of Napa Valley. Today, after 40 years, the Trefethen family’s third generation, Loren and Hailey, assist their parents in continuing the family tradition of passion for the land, its people and the art of crafting exceptional Napa Valley wines.

    Winemaker Zeke Neeley
    Zeke earned his undergraduate degree in Biochemistry from UC Davis and worked for several years in the biotech industry in South San Francisco, focusing on cancer research. A love of wine led him back to school for his Masters degree in Viticulture and Enology at UC Davis, during which time he interned at Trefethen. After stints at wineries in Santa Cruz and Sonoma, Zeke returned to Trefethen and now serves as our winemaker. He is part scientist, part craftsman and part guidance counselor. The process of guiding wine to maturity requires a detailed understanding of microbiology and chemistry, a discerning palate, and plenty of creativity. Zeke’s goal each year is to fashion wines that perfectly showcase the superb fruit from our estate Napa Valley vineyard.

    2003 HāLo Cabernet Sauvignon
  • Appellation: Oak Knoll District
  • Winemaker: David Whitehouse Jr. and Peter Luthi
  • Perhaps the truest expression of our terroir, in this wine you can literally taste the magical place that our children Hailey and Loren grew up in. Aromas of blackberries and bay leaves, like the ones that grow along the spring-fed creek that flows through our Hillspring property, flow too through HaLo. The oak forests that surround the vineyards on the hillsides perfume the ground with their litter, and that enchanting aroma is echoed in HaLo as well. Finally, subtle notes of cocoa, smoke and e... ...read more
