Michael was born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area, but spent his summer months with his grandparents on their 35 acre vineyard estate in Sonoma County. Michael's grandfather purchased the land after WWII and planted Zinfandel grapes, which he sold to local wineries. He always made sure that he retained a portion of the grapes to make his own wine. With roots extending to Piedmont, Italy, Michael's family has been in the wine business since the mid 1800s, and still owns the original property that Michael's great grandfather planted over100 years ago. Michael has benefited greatly from his family's experience and expertise, and has continued the tradition by creating fine wines here in California.<BR>Michael Pozzan winery was founded in 1991 and is based in Oakville, California, in the heart of the Napa Valley. The winery currently produces 50,000 cases a year and distributes its wine throughout the United States in selected markets</P> <BR clear=left><BR><P><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/napawineco/Product701 TITLE="Michael Pozzan 2005 Napa Cuvee No. 11 Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley"><IMG SRC="https://store.nexternal.com/napawineco/images/w_cuvee11_lo-1t.jpg" ALIGN=left ALT="Michael Pozzan 2005 Napa Cuvee No. 11 Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley" NAME="Michael Pozzan 2005 Napa Cuvee No. 11 Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley" BORDER=0></A> <A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/napawineco/Product701 TITLE="Michael Pozzan 2005 Napa Cuvee No. 11 Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley">Michael Pozzan 2005 Napa Cuvee No. 11 Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley</A> -- <B>$20.00</B> -- Tasting Notes: Rich and complex with an earthy, dusty nose.
