Del Bondio Wine Company

Del Bondio winery's location in the middle of the Rutherford appellation is one of the most desirable in Napa Valley. The famous "Rutherford Bench" was a name given to distinguish the long, snaky alluvial band stretching along the west side of the middle of Napa Valley. This area is where many of the premier Cabernet Sauvignon Vineyards are grown. Rutherford wines are associated with "Rutherford Dust" a quality of earthy, dusty, oaky flavor, which is very pleasing to connoisseurs of fine Cabernet wine. Del Bondio takes advantage of its excellent location by planting their acres in Rutherford with Cabernet Sauvignon and those in Oakville with Chardonnay and Syrah grapes.
