Sterling Vineyards Platinum is the ultimate expression of our Napa Valley winemaking expertise.

“Currant and blackberry aromas with flowers and light spices. Full-bodied and dense with soft, nicely chewy tannins and a long, flavorful finish. Very intense and beautiful. One of the best Platinums I have tasted. Drinkable now, but will be so much better in 2024.” - James Suckling, August 2021

Harry Hansen - Winemaker
Director of Winemaking Harry Hansen was raised in nearby Sonoma County. “One of my earliest memories of wine was the gallon jug of red wine that we always had at home. I would go with my father to a local winery, maybe in Kenwood or Healdsburg, to refill that jug and chit-chat with the winery proprietors. The aromas of those wines were always something attractive, somehow mysterious, but always memorable.”
Harry joined Sterling Vineyards and relocated to Napa Valley just before the 2011 Harvest. “The opportunity to join such a respected Napa Valley winery is exciting and a fantastic next step in my winemaking career. Sterling Vineyards is making some wonderful wines, and I look forward to taking that next step up in quality and reputation.”
