The inspiration for The Setting Wines comes from those memorable times with those who mean the most to us; a family dinner, a fine restaurant, a European vacation, or an incredible afternoon in Sonoma Vineyards and at Napa estates. The vision of three friends who truly believe that great wine becomes an unforgettable experience when it is enjoyed in your perfect Setting, wine invites feelings and emotions far beyond what typical food and drink provide.

The Setting Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon was created by Jesse Katz, arguably one of the most influential young winemakers in the U.S. Jesse’s diverse experience spanning 15 harvests at wineries, along with his desire to travel, fed his aspiration to learn from the best in the industry, including Pétrus in Bordeaux, as well as time on the winemaking teams at Screaming Eagle Winery and Robert Foley Winery in Napa Valley, and Viña Cobos and Bodega Noemia in Argentina.

Note: Shipping fees are included in this package. Wine cannot be shipped to P.O. Boxes, to the states of Alabama, Arkansas, Utah, and Mississippi, and will need to be received and signed for by a person over the age of 21.
