Cocetti Wines
cont'
Cocetti Wines began as a dream in the Englewood, Colorado, home of David and
Pat Cocetti in 1981. This dream began to take shape after David Cocetti and
a group of private investors collaborated and established Cocetti Wines,
LTD. Two years later, the first grape crop to produce these fine wines was
ready for release in October of 1983. It was then that "Cocetti Wines" came
of age. The first vintage, a custom crush Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc
made their entrance to the market in Colorado. Pat Cocetti established a
distributorship to exclusively market Cocetti Wines called Cal-Co Wines. Pat
found a niche in a very competitive market with a charming personal touch to
her sales and marketing strategy. The next product was a White Zinfandel
which was a delicately sweet masterpiece. The eagerly awaited, award winning
red wine in the Cocetti repertoire was the 1983 Cabernet Sauvignon, first
released in 1984. The Cabernet Sauvignon has always been the favorite of
those who follow the Cocetti Wine selections. The Brut Champagne was the
next product on line in 1988 -- " e moltl bene -- bravissimo" (it is very
good). Today the Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Cabernet Sauvignon and Brut
Champagne are established connoisseur favorites. Cocetti Wines is considered
a "boutique winery" in that grapes are purchased from the best vineyards in
Napa Valley, then custom crushed, fermented in authentic French Limosin oak
barrels, aged, and bottled at a contracted facility. From its' inception,
Cocetti Wines have been "Romancing the Grape" in Napa Valley for 20 years.
