Maura Johnson: The Voice Behind Napa’s Most Elegant Cabernet

Maura Johnson’s journey to Dana Estates reads like a study in dedication. After earning her degree at UC Davis, she honed her craft with harvests across the globe—Germany, New Zealand, Australia—before returning home to Napa. There, she spent years working with renowned producers like Vine Cliff Winery, Silver Oak Cellars, and Duckhorn Wine Company.

In 2018, Maura joined Dana Estates, where her thoughtful, exacting approach found its ideal match. Each of the estate’s famed vineyard sites—Helms, Lotus, Hershey, Crystal Springs—is vinified with purpose, restraint, and a deep respect for place. Her wines are layered but never loud. Age-worthy yet graceful.

This release offers rare access to the wines that define Maura Johnson’s Napa—shaped by experience at Vine Cliff, Silver Oak, Duckhorn, and perfected at Dana Estates. This is Cabernet at its most refined—made to age, made to remember.

Explore what Maura Johnson has brought to life at these Estates.
