The mission of the winery has three parts.  It locates opportunities in the wine market; elevates wines from some of the finest vineyard sites available to perfection through precise blending; and prices its wines at affordable, competitve prices for contemporary wine drinkers.

Location, Elevation & Slope's first wine, Gain Bay 2005 Cabernet Family, was an example of what is possible to produce as a negociant; a $20.00 red wine from Napa Valley.  That initial wine sold out swiftly. 

Now, the winery is releasing it's eleventh wine in just 4 years, the 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon - Lake County and has limited library stock of the first Reserve wine, from 2006. 

Take your time and explore the wine and its heritage.
