    Our Story Our Wines Winemaking Winemaker, Brian Kosi

    OUR STORY Atalon Napa Valley is inspired by the diversity encompassed within this storied region, and driven by an intrepid spirit of discovery. Our philosophy—a combination of ongoing exploration and uncompromising quality—arises from a deeply rooted relationship with the land. We take a fresh approach, sourcing Bordeaux-style wines from exclusive locations and allowing them to honor their origins with an elegance and complexity that lies at the very heart of contemporary Napa Valley life. OUR WINES Atalon Napa Valley produces exceptional wines cultivated in elite appellations. From alluvial benchlands to high-elevation mountainsides, each carefully selected terroir yields wines of remarkable varietal character.

WINEMAKING At Atalon Napa Valley, we understand that winemaking is a mysterious combination of intuition and science. Everything depends upon an alignment between the land and climate, upon a deep awareness of the interplay between seasonal fluctuation and geographical features—from soil type to the slope of a hillside vineyard. WINEMAKER, BRIAN KOSI Brian Kosi, Winemaker for Atalon Winery, is a master blender known for crafting age-worthy wines, working exclusively with Cabernet Sauvignon from many prestigious Napa Valley appellations. His first vintage with Atalon was 2009, where he brings over 15 years of winemaking experience to the team.

    2016 Like a Family Reunion, This Wine Brings Together the Members of One Single Line of Descent, and One Single Cistercian Terro

    BOURGOGNE PINOT NOIR “TERRES DE FAMILLE” 2016 Like a family reunion, this wine brings together the members of one single line of descent, and one single Cistercian terroir. The varietal – Pinot Noir – has been grown here for almost 700 years. One-third of the grapes comes from our vines on the Côte de Nuits, and two-thirds from the Côte de Beaune – divine proportions for a divine wine. HISTORY The aristocratic and sophisticated Pinot Noir grape gives the vines their blue blood, and is behind some of the most dazzling red wines ever made. Cited for the first time in 1375, the name has since then been inextricably linked to the history of Burgundy wine. The red wines made here from the Pinot Noir grape are the very the soul of their Burgundy birthplace. And it is here where they flourish best. The Pinot Noir grape is delicate and complex. It doesn’t grow as well anywhere else, and according to the wine writer Jancis Robinson, remains “jealously envied” on its home soil in Burgundy. Surface area : 4.6814 ha PLOTS LE TROUSSEAU Surface area: 0.1302 ha Plantation : 1959/60 LES CROTOTS Surface area: 0.1782 hectares Geographical location: Commune of Gilly-lès-Citeaux Aspect: South Planted: 1971/1972, 1972/1973, 1974/1975 Situation: This is the Pinot Noir grape with all its ardor and delicacy, its vitality and sensitivity, its authenticity, thanks to these plots in Gilly-lès-Cîteaux, a stone’s throw from Le Clos de Vougeot and our Vougeot vines, combined with a touch of rusticity from the Côte de Beaune.

The cork is never removed, which helps prevent oxidation, increasing the longevity of the wine. It accomplishes this by first inserting a hollow needle through the cork. The user then presses a trigger to pressurize the bottle with argon gas. When the user releases the trigger, the wine pours into the glass.
