Nestled in the rolling hills of California near the 39th parallel, a group of passionate winemakers came together with a mission: to craft exceptional quality wines that delight the senses and protect the environment and communities they serve. This marked the debut of Line 39 wines, a leader in earth-friendly winemaking and proud member of the B Corp community.
From the very beginning, they knew they wanted to create delicious wines that also reflected their commitment to the planet. That's why they make their wine in a certified sustainable winery and source their grapes from certified sustainable vineyards that are committed to protecting the soil, the environment, their employees and communities around them. Healthier soils don't just make amazing wine, they capture the magic of their home. Winemaker, Alyssa Reynolds, creates beautiful wines that are balanced, nuanced, and truly unforgettable. Rich, fruity reds that highlight the best their grapes have to offer and bright, crisp whites that dance across your tongue, delivering refreshment straight to your taste buds.
As a certified B Corporation, they hold themselves to the highest standards of social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability. They invite you to join them on this journey and to enjoy some delicious wine.
Covering the most vine acreage in the state compared to any other red wine variety, Cabernet Sauvignon produces as much wine in California as Merlot and Pinot Noir combined. The state’s diverse terrain and microclimates, as well as the freedom of its winemakers, allow for an incredible range of wine styles from this single grape.
California’s most famous region—and especially for Cabernet Sauvignon—is the acclaimed Napa Valley. While Cabernet is successful throughout the world, rarely has it achieved such merit as it does from the Napa Valley. At this point the two are so intrinsically linked that it is difficult to discuss one without the other.
Napa’s closest neighbor, Sonoma County, does an impressive job keeping up with Napa’s fame and glory. Alexander Valley, Sonoma Mountain, Moon Mountain and Knights Valley contribute to the lot of some of California’s top-rated Cabernet Sauvignon.
Lake County in California’s North Coast has become a focus for some of Napa’s more respected growers. From the Central Coast come iconic examples of classic California Cabernet; Lodi and the Sierra Foothills are great budget-friendly sources of amicable Cabernets.
