Eshcol (esh-kol) is the original name of the estate. First planted in the 1800s, the wines made here helped establish Napa’s early reputation for quality. As responsible stewards of this precious farmland, they base their approach to farming on their understanding of the ecology of their estate, recognising that their treasured vines are only one piece of a complex whole. Delighting in a process of constant learning, the family strives to bring out the best in their grapes, their wines and themselves.

The dedication of the Trefethen family is manifest in every aspect of their operation, from the soil to the table, including sustainable farming, thoughtful winemaking, and gracious hospitality. Eshcol rounds out the Trefethen portfolio as an introduction to our estate grown and sustainably produced wines. Crafted for those looking for Napa Valley quality in an accessible wine, Eshcol delivers an incredible value. Rich aromas of stone fruit and berry are elevated by earthy hints of eucalyptus and cedar. Light on the palate, flavors of red cherry and cassis are layered with spicy notes of cracked white pepper and spiced greens, leading to a bright, well-rounded finish. Try this wine with game meat like duck, venison or veal.
