Turnbull

Turnbull Wine Cellars is an Oakville estate established in 1979, farming approximately 160 acres of certified organic vineyards in the Oakville appellation with a focus on Cabernet Sauvignon. The estate produces a hierarchy of Cabernets: the standard Napa Valley bottling, the Estate Grown, the Leopoldina, the Reserve, Amoenus, and the rare Grand Finale. Grand Finale is the estate's most valuable wine at $236 average across 13 lots with the 2016 vintage most traded. The standard Cabernet averages $68 across 43 lots. Leopoldina averages $84; Reserve $86; Amoenus $80; Estate Grown $75. Auction prices reach $610. The overall average of $95 across 149 lots reflects a producer positioned in the reliable mid-premium Oakville tier. Turnbull's certified organic farming — a meaningful distinction on Oakville benchland — and the estate's longevity (over 40 years) provide collector confidence. The estate has received consistent 90–94 point critical scores that sustain secondary market demand without generating trophy-tier pricing. The organic viticulture, Oakville terroir, and affordable entry points (under $70 for the standard Cabernet) make Turnbull an accessible pathway into one of Napa's most prestigious appellations.
