Current Release Wines
The winemaking philosophy at Progeny focuses on extended barrel and bottle aging, resulting in wines of power, balance and elegance with an exotic bouquet and a lingering finish.
Each year, Progeny releases four limited-production wines: Trinity Blanc, Trinity Rouge, Mt. Veeder Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon and their flagship bottling, Special Selection Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon.
2017 special selection reserve cabernet sauvignon
Annual Fall Release September 2023 - sold out
Progeny’s Special Selection Reserve (S.S.R.) presents a luscious expression of 100% Cabernet Sauvignon. Our 11th vintage remained in French oak for 32 months, followed by 36 months of bottle aging before release.
Showcasing a dark red purple with an opaque center, deep and fragrant aromas of wild black fruits, lavender, crushed rocks, baked plums, and cedar pull you into the glass. On the palate, you’ll find flavors of mission fig laced with violet undertones and toasted vanilla bean. This wine is dense, rich, and enormously concentrated, mixing power and elegance. We believe you may age this wine in your cellar for another 20+ years.
Varieties: Cabernet Sauvignon (100%)
Appellation: Mt. Veeder, Napa Valley
Vineyard: Betty's Vineyard
2019 Mt. Veeder Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon
Annual Fall Release September 2023
The 2019 cuvée rested 22 months in French oak and 24 months in bottle, reflecting Progeny’s approach to extended aging prior to release for all our wines. The dark purple color, with an opaque center, foretells a wine of enticing aromas: powerfully aromatic boysenberry, rose petal, dark-roast coffee beans, and cassis. Flavors of mixed berry compote, black cherry and graphite integrate smoothly with great length and silky tannins.
Varieties: Cabernet Sauvignon (82%), Merlot (5%), St. Macaire (5%), Malbec (4%),
Cabernet Franc (2%) & Carménère (2%)
Appellation: Mt. Veeder, Napa Valley

2018 Trinity Rouge
Annual Spring Release 2023 - sold out
The sixth vintage of Trinity Rouge utilizes traditional Southern red Rhône varieties growing on our Estate. Aged for 22 months in French oak and 30 months in bottle, this wine showcases a dark red center with a purple hue and semi-opaque core. The aromas carry notes of cherry blossom, boysenberry crumble, and dark mocha. Striking flavors of ripe black cherry, plum and a touch of baking spices compliment the silky-smooth texture and long finish.
Varieties: Syrah (41%), Grenache (32%), Mourvèdre (21%) & Counoise (6%)
Appellation: Mt. Veeder, Napa Valley

2019 Trinity Blanc
Annual Spring Release 2023 - sold out
The 2019 vintage of Progeny's only white wine features for the second time addition of the Grenache Blanc in the blend. The grapes were harvested in late August and early September, then whole cluster pressed and fermented in a combination of French oak, concrete, and stainless steel. In the glass, the 2019 Trinity Blanc presents a medium straw yellow with a slight golden hue and brilliant appearance. Delicate aromas of Asian pear, kumquat and minerality intermingle while opening to deeper aromas of honeysuckle and honey-glazed Marcona almonds. Flavors of Meyer lemon meringue and apricot dance on the palate complimenting the lively acidity with delightful mid-palate weight.
Varieties: Marsanne (34%), Roussanne (25%), Viognier (25%) & Grenache Blanc (9%)
Appellation: Mt. Veeder, Napa Valley
