Event Corison
We’ve tried everything. We appealed to your sense of romance and your love of luxury with our fancy pre-Valentine’s Day deal. We’ve told you over and over about Cathy Corison’s 30 years of experience in gentle, traditional winemaking methods. We’ve rolled out Corison Cabernet’s long record of accolades from all over the place. And, of course, we’ve arranged scandalously low prices for every Corison deal. What are you waiting for?
Well, how about a shot at Corison’s Helios line? Normally available only in person at Corison’s tasting rooms, these more affordable wines are made from grapes that didn’t fit into any of the other Corison blends. Cathy never makes more than two hundred cases of any of them. Same grape source, same cooperage, same Old World techniques and expertise. Only the price is different.
But don’t get the wrong idea. When you get a load of the 2004 Helios Merlot’s lovely ripe cherry and blueberry aromas loaced with cigar box, forest floor, and mineral notes, or the silky 2005 Helios Cabernet’s bright and complex black cherry, plum, cassis, mocha and vanilla, you won’t be thinking, “Boy, was this stuff affordable.” You’ll be asking yourself why you waited so long to take the Corison plunge.
If this doesn’t do the trick, we give up. Consider yourself uninvited to any Corison deals here in the future. We’d love to turn you on to a verdant new world of sensory delight, but we certainly can’t force you to. Guess we’ll just have to drink it all ourselves. Oh, darn.

Vendor Details
Corison Winery
- Founded:
- 1995
- Owner:
As you can see from this Wine Spectator interview, Cathy Corison seems like a reasonable woman. But don’t expect her to compromise when it comes to the quality of her Cabernet Sauvignon. Drawing fruit from the great benchland vineyards of Napa Valley, including Corison’s own venerable Kronos Vineyard, Corison Winery uses artisan techniques to produce concentrated, elegant, superlative Cabs. Which means they taste awesome, is what we’re trying to say.
