It is particularly known for its opulent, single-vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon wines, which regularly achieve top scores from from the major wine critics and publications. Proprietor and former investment banker Jayson Woodbridge bought the 3.6 hectare (9 acre) Kayli Morgan vineyard in Howell Mountain in the late 1990s, naming it for the Hundred Acre Wood from Winnie-the-Pooh. This has been joined by the Ark Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon from a six hectare (15 ac) property on Glass Mountain in St Helena, and the Few and Far Between cuv??e from a two hectare (five acre) site near the historic Eisele vineyard which features around 10-percent Cabernet Franc. The Precious is a cuv??e drawn from all three properties. The vineyard is managed carefully, in such a way that the practices are commensurate with the price of the wines. Vines are pruned to one grape cluster per vine, producing very low yields, and five passes are made at harvest time. At the winery, grapes are sorted berry by berry, and fermented in French oak, usually 500 litre puncheons. Aging time for the wines varies from vintage to vintage, but two years is not out of the ordinary. These wines frequently sell out upon release and are not easy to secure unless one is on the Hundred Acre mailing list. Hundred Acres also produces the Ancient Way Shiraz from the Barossa Valley in Australia. First produced in 2004, it is sourced from an estate-owned vineyard near Greenock Creek, and is aged in new French oak for two years, then racked into fresh new oak French barrels for another two years, before a final year in bottle. It is lush wine with masses of black fruits and again, is one of the most expensive wines from its region. Jayson Woodbridge also owns Layer Cake, a collection of wines from around the world at more everyday prices, and the Cherry Pie and Cherry Tart ranges of Californian Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Another Napa Valley Cabernet is produced under the Fortunate Son label.
