Certain that mountain side vineyards in Napa Valley could produce world class wines, in 1974 Robert Keenan purchased 180 acres in the Spring Mountain District at an elevation of 1700 feet. Located on the eastern slope of the Mayacamas mountain range, Spring Mountain District gained recognition as an American Vineyard Appellation (AVA) in 1993. The low vigor soils unique to the region were known to create a stressful environment for vine growth, setting up perfect conditions to encourage vineyards planted on the steep, rocky, mountainsides to produce wines of great concentration, structure, and pure varietal flavors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: #ffffff; text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px; color: #666666; font-family: 'Source Sans Pro', sans-serif;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: #ffffff; text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px; color: #666666; font-family: 'Source Sans Pro', sans-serif;\"\u003eThe original acreage Robert acquired included the crumbling Peter Conradi Winery, founded in the late 19th Century and one of the first pioneering properties established on Spring Mountain. Peter Conradi had originally planted the vineyards to Zinfandel and Syrah, but they declined when the property was abandoned during Prohibition, and by the time Keenan arrived in 1974, none of the original vineyards were producing. Robert cleared the estate of tree stumps and rocks, extended the original vineyard acreage and replanted the property to Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay. He built a new winery using the existing stonewalls from the old Conradi building, and celebrated Keenan Winery’s first harvest there in 1977.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: #ffffff; text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px; color: #666666; font-family: 'Source Sans Pro', sans-serif;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: #ffffff; text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px; color: #666666; font-family: 'Source Sans Pro', sans-serif;\"\u003eThe history of Keenan Winery turned a new direction when Michael Keenan took over leadership of the estate in 1998. Shortly thereafter, he and the team made the decision to replant the vineyards to increase grape quality. In addition, we built a solar power system that went on-line in 2007 and now supplies all of the estate’s energy needs, including the winery, administrative offices, visitor hospitality area, and the homes located on the property. The Napa Valley Vintners have recognized Keenan as a “green” winery, which we now proudly announce on our back labels: Solar Powered and Sustainably Farmed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: #ffffff; text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px; color: #666666; font-family: 'Source Sans Pro', sans-serif;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: #ffffff; text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 10px; color: #666666; font-family: 'Source Sans Pro', sans-serif;\"\u003eToday Keenan Winery produces four superb and distinctive wines exclusively from grapes grown our Spring Mountain Estate: Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve, Cabernet Franc and a Merlot Reserve from the Mailbox Vineyard. Keenan also offers wines produced from estate fruit blended with grapes grown in carefully selected Napa Valley vineyards: Cabernet Sauvignon, Zinfandel, and the Mernet Reserve, which is a proprietary blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc. Our Summer Blend, an annual spring release, is composed of mostly Chardonnay and blended with small amounts of Viognier and Albarino.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pipWineNotes\" style=\"font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: #ffffff; text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0); margin: 0px 0px 30px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline-width: 0px; font-variant-numeric: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-size: 16px; line-height: inherit; font-family: BentonSans, Arial, sans-serif; vertical-align: baseline; color: #292b2d;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: #ffffff; text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0); margin: 0px 0px 30px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline-width: 0px; font-variant-numeric: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-size: 16px; line-height: inherit; font-family: BentonSans, Arial, sans-serif; vertical-align: baseline; color: #292b2d;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pipWineNotes_copy viewMoreModule js-expanded\" style=\"-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0); margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline-width: 0px; font: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; position: relative;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0); margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline-width: 0px; font: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; position: relative;\" itemprop=\"description\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"viewMoreModule_text\" style=\"-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0); margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline-width: 0px; font: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; position: relative; overflow: hidden; max-height: 2000px; transition: max-height 200ms ease-in-out 0s;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0); margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline-width: 0px; font: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; position: relative; overflow: hidden; max-height: 2000px; transition: max-height 200ms ease-in-out 0s;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0); margin: 20px 0px 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline-width: 0px; font: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0); margin: 20px 0px 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline-width: 0px; font: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;\"\u003e2016 is the 18th consecutive vintage of Mernet (mare-nay) Keenan's proprietary marriage of Merlot and Cabernet. This vintage, the blend is 50% Merlot and 50% Cabernet Sauvignon Clone 7 both varieties grown in their “Upper Bowl” vineyard. The resulting wine is a seamless blend with an emphasis on high-toned sweet delicious rich fruit with an almost hidden depth and structure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Keenan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43245373849824,"sku":"112288","price":112.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0649\/9713\/0464\/products\/keenan-mernet-reserve_1_70ce4684-29af-48c6-bed1-348ee6a84746.jpg?v=1663887441","url":"https:\/\/www.mywineconnection.com\/products\/keenan-mernet-reserve-2016-750ml","provider":"My Wine Connection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
