For several years, Red Stitch produced only a Cabernet Sauvignon, making about 100 cases.

Given several bottles of Cabernet Sauvignon by a winemaker as a thank you for a signed bat and jersey, Barry Bonds knew who would appreciate them most.

As if following a baseball superstition, the Red Stitch partners and their respective wives — Tricia Roberts, Amy Aurilia and Noelle Micek — take the same seats at the same table at Herrera’s winery for their annual Cabernet Sauvignon blending session.

On the credenza to the right are half-bottles of Cabernet Sauvignon, each representing a sample of wine from a lot within one of three vineyards.
