Description

USA / California / Napa Valley

After completing his studies, Christian Moueix initially managed the family's own wineries, including the renowned Château Petrus. While still studying in California, he recognized the great potential of the Napa Valley, returned and founded the small boutique winery Ulysses here in 2008. Its vineyards are located in Oakville, a region with a moderate, Mediterranean climate. Due to the cooling weather influences from San Francisco Bay, fresh and very elegant wines are produced here. Christian Moueix only filled a few bottles of his exceptional Cabernet in the perfect 2016 vintage. It's his best vintage so far.
