Company Profile

Our passion for wine drove us to create Domaine La Due.  Years of wine industry experience gave us the confidence and ability to accomplish our goal.  It is to produce ultra-premium wines and offer them to consumers at reasonable prices. Domaine La Due focuses exclusively on small lots of Napa Valley wines. 

 

Douglas grew up in Kentucky and came to the Napa Valley by way of the United States Navy.  He served for 8 years as EOD.  We met while he was stationed at Mare Island Naval Base.  It was clear from the start that Napa would be his new home. After we were married Douglas graduated from UC Davis.

 

Angela grew up in Napa.  She graduated from Cal Poly in San Luis Obispo and after a year in San Francisco she knew she wanted to return home.

   Douglas, Angela & Chianti

We have worked for many different wineries sharing over 13 years of wine industry experience.  We had a wonderful opportunity to start Domaine La Due while Douglas was working at a large Napa Valley winery.  We started with 95 cases of 1999 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon and have learned a lot since then.  Having experienced a multitude of winemaking philosophies, we know that great wines start in the vineyards. Knowing what a vineyard has created in the past gives us a good basis to understand what we can and more importantly what we should not do while creating our wines. We utilize fruit from the entire Napa Valley, allowing us to consistently produce great wines.  Our flexibility in sourcing also allows us to bring our wines to you at prices below the average Napa Valley wines.

We create our wines to be well balanced and food friendly.  While quality is our focus, we strive to reflect the varietal character as well as allowing the terroir to show through in our small lots of ultra-premium Napa Valley wines.  We look forward to the opportunity to pour our wines for you.  We are confident you'll enjoy our wines and love our prices!!!

            Cheers, Douglas & Angela Due
