A Fruitful Purchase
Founded in 1982, St. Supéry became known for producing exceptional wines from 100% estate-grown grapes from vineyards spanning 1,700 acres. St. Supéry specializes in cabernet sauvignons, red Bordeaux, and is responsible for nearly 10% of Napa Valley’s sauvignon blancs. The winery is Certified Napa Green Winery and Vineyard and a Gold Member of International Wineries for Climate Action.
The Rudd family founded Rudd Estate in 1996 and turned their eastern Oakville grapes into one of Napa Valley’s most successful estate-grown cabernet sauvignons. Leslie and Susan Rudd have spent nearly four decades pursuing the vision to maximize the full potential of their land and leave it better than they found it. Over time, the Rudd family has maintained a steadfast commitment to excellence and heritage through their quality wine production.
St. Supéry’s acquisition of Rudd Estate reflects a commitment to developing land that has the potential to carry on a legacy. St. Supéry is working hand-in-hand with the Rudd Estate team to ensure the property maintains the unique identity it has cultivated over decades.
“Rudd and St. Supéry share a deep commitment to estate wines, craftsmanship, sustainability, and excellence. It’s exciting to see the Rudd family’s legacy continue with a partner who values those things so deeply.” — Darrell Swank, Trustee of the Leslie G. Rudd Estate.
St. Supéry will continue creating wines from the Rudd Estate and offering bottled wines for sale through its wholesale and private consumer channels.
