ISO Napa Carmenere

I’m looking for Carmenere from Napa. So far, all I have found is Quintessa makes some and TBD wines, which is a second or third label for Capiaux used to make it. We topped one row to Carmenere a couple years ago and I’m looking other examples from Napa for comparitive purposes. Anyone know of any out there on the market?

Caldwell is one that comes to mind.

Thanks! I’m going to see Mario tomorrow, I’ll ask about it.

O’shaughnessy has some planted I believe.

Thank you, you are correct, they have all the Bdx varietals at O’shaughnessy except Gros Verdot. Unfortunately, they don’t bottle a varietal Carmenere. TBD is their winemaker, Sean Capieux’s label and he used to have some growing in his backyard. Can’t find any after 2018 though.
