Ava Summary

AI generated

Portfolio Limited Edition Winery, a joint venture between husband-and-wife team Geneviève and Luc Janssens, is a Napa Valley "garagist" winery operating out of their residential garage. The winery's operations are characterized by a focus on minimal intervention and traditional techniques, including hand-sorting, punch-downs at 2am during fermentation, and aging in new French oak for approximately 2.5 years. Their Cabernet Sauvignon is sourced from the Hendry Vineyard, a historic site with records of grape plantings dating back to 1859, while their Cabernet Franc comes from the Detert Vineyard on the eastern Oakville bench-land. The winery's commitment to premium vineyard sources and gentle winemaking techniques results in high-quality wines, typically produced in limited quantities (never more than 250 cases) with a single vintage released each year. The Janssens' involvement in every step of production ensures a hands-on approach to crafting their elegant Cabernet Sauvignon-based wines, often blended with a smaller amount of Cabernet Franc.
