There are literally millions of choices when it comes to luxury gift baskets these days, but especially when you are selecting a basket filled with a wine, there are many choices with unfamiliar wineries. Learning a bit about wine regions and the smaller wineries within those regions will help you make an informed purchase.

One of our favorite Napa Valley, family owned wineries is Barnett Vineyards. Total production at this winery, which sits near the top of Spring Mountain is six thousand cases of wine per year. A Rattlesnake Hill Cabernet Sauvignon and Sping Mountain Cabernet take up about half the total production of the winery and almost all of the high critical scores.

Spring Mountain has been gaining a name for itself within the Napa Valley wine community because of the outstanding and even perhaps unparalleled depth of its wines when compared with literally any other growing region in the entire world.
