Aspire to New Heights

Welcome to Acumen

Founded by proprietor Eric Yuan, and guided by a team that includes legendary Winemaker Phillip Titus and renowned Vineyard Manager Doug Hill, Acumen is dedicated to creating the next great Napa Valley wine estate. To achieve this goal, Acumen has established an estate on Napa Valley’s Atlas Peak. From these coveted grapes, the Acumen team makes a small portfolio of estate-grown wines, with a focus on mountain-grown Cabernet Sauvignon, as well as Sauvignon Blanc. Taking inspiration from the great Napa Valley Cabernets of the 1960s and 1970s, Acumen’s classically structured wines are recognized for their balance, vineyard-driven complexity and uncommon age-worthiness.

Vineyard

In California, less than 3% of the grapes come from vineyards above 1000 feet in elevation. While these coveted sites are few due to the challenges that come with farming mountain vineyards, they are the source of many of America’s most famous wines. Atlas Peak AVA, established in 1992, holds the most prominent peak in the area at 2,663 ft (812 m). Acumen acquired its first vineyard on Atlas Peak in 2012. Originally planted in 1992, the northeast exposure vineyard was the ‘home vineyard’ of Dr. Jan Krupp, predating his famed Stagecoach Vineyard by three years.
