Introducing the Highly-Anticipated John Anthony Vineyards 2025 Spring Release

Spring has arrived at John Anthony Vineyards, and with it comes the eagerly awaited 2025 Spring Release. This exceptional collection features eight limited-production wines, each a masterful expression of our acclaimed Napa Valley estates. From vineyard to bottle, these wines reflect the meticulous care of our team and the character of our remarkable terroir. Quantities of these handcrafted wines are limited and offered on a first-come, first-serve basis. Please secure your selections early.

Leading the 2025 Spring Release are the highly-demanded John Anthony Sauvignon Blancs: the 2024 John Anthony Carneros Sauvignon Blanc and the 2024 John Anthony Church Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc. Both wines hail from Napa Valley’s Los Carneros AVA, renowned for its cool climate and ideal conditions for crafting elegant Sauvignon Blanc. The 2024 John Anthony Carneros Sauvignon Blanc is a vibrant expression of the Los Carneros AVA and delivers an exquisite balance of freshness and complexity. Fermented in stainless steel, pronounced aromas of ripe citrus, green apple, and white peach are complemented by subtle floral notes leading to a crisp, clean finish. The 2024 John Anthony Church Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc is sourced exclusively from Church Vineyard, this single-vineyard Sauvignon Blanc is a showcase of terroir and meticulous winemaking with a gentle fermentation in French oak barrels. Aromas of tropical fruit, passionfruit, and lime zest intertwine with delicate herbal undertones for a rich, textured experience balanced by a refreshing acidity.

Next in the 2025 collection is the refined and expressive 2023 John Anthony Reserve Chardonnay. Sourced from our historic Jameson Canyon estate, acquired by John in 2021, this wine embodies the rich character of its unique terroir. Its striking golden hue signals aromas of baked apple and ripe pineapple. On the palate, vibrancy and richness of flavor and texture extend through to a lingering finish. This Reserve Chardonnay is a testament to our dedication to crafting wines of exceptional depth and elegance.

The 2025 Spring Release continues with the extraordinary 2021 John Anthony Coombsville Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon—a wine that truly stands out in this collection. Sourced from our small, four-acre Coombsville Vineyard estate, this head-trained and dry-farmed site yields fruit of remarkable fruit concentration and quality. The 2021 vintage is both refined and powerful, expressing the character of the vineyard. With its exceptional depth, this Cabernet Sauvignon is a true gem that embodies the essence of Coombsville and the artistry of John Anthony winegrowing and winemaking.

 

Next in our Spring Release are three exceptional single-vineyard Cabernet Sauvignons from the Oak Knoll District. Beginning with the smallest of our Oak Knoll estates, the 2021 John Anthony Epps Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon stands out for its rich, dark fruit character and structural complexity. The vineyard’s superb drainage enhances the intensity and nuance of the fruit, resulting in a wine of remarkable depth. With only four barrels produced each year, this ultra-limited Cabernet Sauvignon is a rare expression of this tiny vineyard.

 

Following is the 2021 John Anthony GnR Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon. From just two and a half acres of gravelly benchland soils in the Oak Knoll District, the GnR Vineyard yields small quantities of intensely concentrated Cabernet Sauvignon. The 2021 vintage showcases refined tannins, vibrant acidity, and an impressive balance, even in its youth, promising remarkable cellaring potential for decades to come.

The third Oak Knoll District wine in our Spring Release is the 2021 John Anthony R&D Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon. Spanning just under four acres, the R&D Vineyard's rich volcanic soils are renowned for yielding Cabernet Sauvignons with high energy and powerful structure. The 2021 vintage evolves gracefully, revealing layers of fruit, spice, and tannin that harmonize with vibrant acidity.

 

The collection concludes with the 2021 John Anthony Vineyards Reserve Syrah, crafted from a micro-block at Crane Vineyard—one of the first sites John planted to the Hermitage Clone of Syrah nearly 25 years ago. This remarkable wine boasts complex layers and an elegant structure, supported by a dense, rich core and soft, supple tannins that evolve beautifully with time. The Syrah is the perfect finale to our 2025 Spring Release.

 

Embodying John’s commitment to heritage, winegrowing, and winemaking, the 2025 John Anthony Spring Release is a celebration of the world-class Napa Valley wine region. We hope that these wines find a place at your table, shared with family and friends. Visit us at the John Anthony Tasting Lounge in downtown Napa to savor these highly sought-after wines.

Single-Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignons

2020 Coombsville Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon

Coombsville Vineyard is a wild and untamed-looking four-acre micro-estate that established a name for itself before the Coombsville area became a designated American Viticultural Area. The Cabernet Sauvignon vines on this property are head-trained and dry-farmed creating remarkable intensity and expressiveness in the berries grown here.

2020 R/D Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon

R/D Vineyard stands as one of four John Anthony Vineyards Oak Knoll District vineyards, ranking as the second largest of these properties at 3.5 acres. Nearly two decades ago, John discovered these adjacent family estates in their underdeveloped state and made the strategic decision to plant them exclusively with Cabernet Sauvignon vines.

Situated on the valley floor, these blocks run north-south and are bathed in abundant sunlight providing excellent ripening for Cabernet Sauvignon grapes. The 2020 Epps Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon has strong aromas of black raspberries, blackberries, and Bing Cherry. Notes of dried leather, savory tobacco, and sweet oak follow. This wine was aged in 85% new French oak, with a limited 150 cases released.

2019 Twisted Oak Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon

Unique amongst John Anthony's four Oak Knoll District vineyards, Twisted Oak has a higher elevation and different vine orientations. Perched upon a steep hillside, these vines experience varying degrees of sunlight throughout the day due to the natural contours of the land, resulting in the unparalleled intensity of flavor in the fruit harvested from this unique plot. The 2019 vintage marks just the third micro-production vineyard designated from Twisted Oak. Aromas of baked, red fruits and savory-spiced plums reveal hints of dried rose and fresh fig.

2024 Growing Season: A Vintage to Remember

After an ample winter with significant rainfall, John Anthony’s Napa Valley estates are gearing up for what promises to be an exceptional vintage. The vines have responded positively to the winter rains, resulting in healthy, vibrant canopies and excellent cluster development.

Weather Conditions and Vineyard Health

The 2024 winter brought abundant rain, replenishing groundwater and setting the stage for a thriving growing season. Bud break occurred in mid-March, slightly later than usual due to the cool spring, but the vines have since flourished under the sunny days of early summer. With large, full canopies from the last two rain seasons, the grapes are now basking in sunlight, expressing the unique terroir of each vineyard site.

As our vineyard sites enter the fruit set stage, the vines are transitioning towards veraison, the crucial period when grapes begin to change color and develop their characteristic flavors. This stage marks a critical phase in the ripening process, determining the quality and complexity of the upcoming vintage.

Vineyard Management

Throughout the growing season, the vineyard team at John Anthony has meticulously managed our vineyards in Napa Valley to ensure optimal grape development. Tasks such as leafing, cluster thinning, and canopy management are carried out with precision, guided by decades of experience and a deep understanding of Napa Valley’s microclimates.

John Anthony Truchard, with over 30 years in Napa Valley winemaking, leads a dedicated team that is committed to producing wines of exceptional quality. Their attention to detail and commitment to sustainable practices ensure that each vineyard site reaches its full potential.

Estate Highlights

The excitement for the 2024 vintage extends across John Anthony’s estates, including Church Vineyard in Los Carneros AVA, Coombsville Vineyard in Coombsville AVA, and R/D, GnR, Epps, and Crane Vineyards in Oak Knoll District AVA, and Jameson Canyon Vineyard in the southern rolling hills of Napa Valley. Each vineyard benefits from unique terroir, contributing to the diversity and complexity of the wines produced.

Looking Forward

As we anticipate the upcoming harvest, all signs point to a vintage that celebrates the best of Napa Valley winemaking. The combination of ample winter rains, meticulous vineyard management, and optimal grape development sets the stage for wines that reflect the essence of their terroir and the dedication of the vineyard team.
