Destination Cellars and Lail Vineyards bring us wines by Robin Daniel Lail for the awards events. Robin's father, who re-opened Inglenook following Prohibition, was the first to put Napa Valley as an appellation on wine bottles and produced legendary wines. She co-founded Dominus with Christian Moueix of Chateau Petrus and in 1983 she co-founded Merryvale with Bill Harlan of Harlan Estate. She also served as managing director of Meadowood in 1985 and 1993. In 1995, Lail founded Lail Vineyards with her husband, Jon, and her daughters taking the family legacy into the 21st Century.
“Destination Cellars and Lail Vineyards share a passion for great wine traditions and a dedication, bordering on an obsession with excellence,” said Robin Lail, president, Lail Vineyards. “I am honored to share my family’s legacy with the Destination Cellars community.”
