Educated Guess

Educated Guess is Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon built on a clear mission: deliver serious Napa character at a price tier that stays defensible on a list. Founded by vintner Mark Albrecht under the Roots Run Deep umbrella, the project is shaped by long-term grower relationships and sourcing across Napa’s most respected districts, including Oakville, Rutherford, Yountville, St. Helena, Oak Knoll, and Carneros.

The style is unapologetically Napa, with structure, depth, and polish, but without the luxury-only positioning that puts Cabernet out of reach for many programs. Educated Guess has become a modern reference for value in Napa, pairing real vineyard pedigree with consistent quality and broad utility.
