The Lion’s Reign

The Lion's Reign showcases The Lion, the icon Cabernet Sauvignon of our portfolio. Bound in a gift box, this is a vertical library selection from vintage 2019 to 2022.
About

The Lion Estate Cabernet Sauvignon reflects the very best of Mount Veeder. Sourced exclusively from our Veeder Hills Vineyard, winemaking focuses on quality — each vintage is limited, library vintages even more so. The Lion's Reign features:

The Lion offers deep and abundant layers of wild mountain brambles, bay leaves and violets, dark cocoa and warm spices. Consulting winemaker Celia Welch collaborated with Stephanie Pope to craft this distinctive Cabernet Sauvignon.

Behind The Name

Our founder, Donald Hess, was fond of these encouraging words.

“Live each day with the heart and courage of the lion!”
