Now that our 2023 vintage wines are resting safely in the cellars of our passionate collectors, we reflect on the incredible confluence of events that made 2025 a landmark year for us.
Fifteen years ago, Memento Mori began with three friends, a talented young winemaker, and a hunch that Napa Valley still had room for audacity. In 2025, we marked our 15th year in business, a milestone that feels less like a finish line and more like a beginning.
For the first time, Estate-grown fruit found its way into our Flagship Cabernet Sauvignon blend. To earn a role in a Cabernet Sauvignon blended from many of Napa Valley’s finest sites, the Estate had to be both distinct and complementary. It was. It also marked the inaugural release of Memento Mori The Estate Cabernet Sauvignon.
Co-founder was given a rare creative canvas with this vintage, redesigning every Memento Mori label. Inspired by the living art of our estate, the new expressions carry color, shimmer, and a tactile presence that reflects both reverence and forward momentum. They are a declaration that our most compelling chapters are yet to come.
2025 also marked our first full year honoring our Fidelium and Kaleidoscope Collectors. Their devotion and belief elevate everything. Together, we experienced the very best of Memento Mori. As these wines rest in your cellars, know that the 2023 vintage stands as a testament to where we have been and where we are going.
