Neal Family cab is a Liquid Art classic for many reasons. It is a top quality Napa cab with an impeccable pedigree produced by one of the valley's great winegrowing families, but because the family is not predisposed to pandering to journalists, it tends to be un-reviewed, and therefore has no place in the pantheon of point scores.

What we have here then is a winelover's dream come true: an almost totally under-the-radar wine full of character and class that massively over-delivers price-wise. Please DO NOT tell your friends - there will be more for us!

Winegrowers in Napa since 1968, Jack Neal & Sons Vineyard Management Inc. farm an astonishing 2,000 acres, from Coombsville to Calistoga.  Since 2001 Mark Neal has used his family's deep cumulative knowledge of Napa terroir to select superior vineyard sites in Howell Mountain, Rutherford, Mount Veeder, Coombsville, Atlas Peak, and St. Helena to produce a 'building block' wine (a la Penfolds Grange)  that he believes best expresses the true character of the  Napa Valley.
