Bound & Determined

Bound & Determined is the Cabernet series from Roots Run Deep Winery, built around a simple founding idea: produce Napa Valley wines of substance and quality that compete with bottles far more expensive. Made in small quantities, the series explores micro-sites within Napa’s most respected sub-appellations, including Oakville, aiming for power with composure rather than excess.

The style is unapologetically luxurious, with concentrated dark fruit, savory spice, and polished tannins shaped by extended aging in French oak. The goal is a Cabernet that reads “special occasion” on the list, while still delivering uncommon quality for its tier. Bound & Determined sits in a rare lane for Napa: premium Cabernet with true depth and presence, offered at a price that remains defensible for programs that care about value as much as pedigree.
