Decades in The Making

Library wines have value far beyond record keeping or legacy – because they tell a story. Each wine recounts a particular vintage, a celebration, a moment in time. Tasting one of these rare wines is a sensory experience unlike any other, because it transports you back in time to re-live a memory – and savor a moment enriched by years of evolution.

We established the Lokoya library to share our history with our collectors for years to come. Wines that are 10, 15, 20 years old or more present the extraordinary opportunity of experiencing Napa Valley’s great mountain appellations through the years. As the bottles evolve with time, the distinctive nuances and age-ability of each can be tasted, shared, and savored with those closest to you.

Every wine has its own unique signature – a personality that speaks to you in a particular way. Natural vintage variation drives each of our wines to showcase the purest expression of place from the year it was grown. True beauty lies in this unpredictable diversity, and the wines themselves serve as historians of our journey.
