R/D Vineyard stands as one of four John Anthony Vineyards Oak Knoll District vineyards, ranking as the second largest of these properties at 3.5 acres. Nestled on the valley floor, this vineyard predominantly features north-south rows, ensuring ample exposure to the full summer sun across its mainly flat terrain. Nearly two decades ago, John discovered these adjacent family estates in their underdeveloped state and made the strategic decision to plant them exclusively with Cabernet Sauvignon vines. With time, these vines have matured gracefully, earning their esteemed vineyard-designate status.

The Oak Knoll District American Viticultural Area is a highly sought-after location in Napa Valley, renowned for the exceptional red varietals the terroir produces. The combination of valley floor sun with tempering breezes from the south results in wines with balanced acidity and complex flavor profiles. The unique soil composition of this region creates individual characteristics in each wine varietal, imparting wines from this region with its distinct character.
