Marketta Winery

Marketta Fourmeaux, a Finnish-French-California winemaker, is celebrated for creating wines of extraordinary finesse and aging potential from sustainably grown hillside grapes in Napa Valley. A veteran Mount Veeder winemaker since 1989, she was knighted by the French Government with the Chevalier de l'Ordre National du Mérite Agricole, one of the Nation's highest awards for science and agriculture, joining icons such as Louis Pasteur. Marketta Winery is located in Napa Valley, specifically on Mount Veeder, where she previously owned a 202-acre property before moving to a cellar within the city of Napa in 2008. The winery produces small batches of around 200-300 cases annually, allowing Marketta to maintain her signature style and create wines that are "bien élevés" - well brought up, refined, and civilized. Her wines have been served at the White House and for European Presidents, earning high accolades for two decades. Marketta's tasting experience is an intimate and magical affair, where she devotes herself fully to each guest's visit, sharing her passion and humor over wine. The winery offers a 40% case discount for those who request an experience, which includes a personalized tour and tasting with Marketta. Her wines include Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot-Cabernet LA PASTIÈRE, Malbec-Cabernet-Merlot AMALGAME, and Chardonnay, all showcasing her expertise in crafting complex and aged wines.
