Our Winery
Memento Mori is a limited-production winery that specializes in Cabernet Sauvignon from some of the most internationally acclaimed vineyard sites in Napa Valley. Memento Mori was founded in 2010 by three childhood friends, Adriel Lares, Hayes Drumwright, and Adam Craun, who have committed themselves to crafting sophisticated wines of tremendous balance, honesty, and profundity. Memento Mori wines seek to capture the essence of each of the famed vineyard sites from which they are sourced—Beckstoffer Dr. Crane Vineyard, Beckstoffer Las Piedras Vineyard, Vine Hill Ranch Vineyard, Weitz Vineyard, and Oakville Ranch Vineyard. Memento Mori wines imbue elegance, power, aromatics, texture, finish, and longevity to create beautifully balanced wines that are approachable in their youth but have enough structure to cellar for long term aging.
