Institution

Napa Valley vineyard-designated Cabernet and Syrah with prestige critic recognition.

Institution produces wines from Napa Valley's North Coast region, where Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah thrive in the valley's distinctive terroir. The winery's portfolio centers on vineyard-designated bottlings that express the character of their sites. The Houyi Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon and Greywacke Vineyard Syrah anchor the range, with the Erba Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon completing a trio of single-vineyard expressions. These wines have been assessed by Wine Advocate, Wine Enthusiast, and Falstaff. Napa Valley's warm days and cool nights create the conditions for ripe fruit and structural balance—qualities evident in Institution's approach to both Cabernet and Syrah, grapes that demand precision in the vineyard and cellar.
