The Official Wine Brand of the John Wayne Family
Wayne Family Estate Wines are inspired by the Duke's life and how he achieved the ultimate American dream through hard work and determination – supporting the John Wayne Cancer Foundation.
JOHN WAYNE AMERICAN
THE GENUINE ARTICLE
America’s Duke was tough, honorable, ready to laugh and share a drink, and always ready to do what men had to in order to see justice done. He didn’t ask you to like him. He asked you to live up to him.
From small-town Iowa to Hollywood stardom, John Wayne’s life story is one for the books. Some of his greatest roles were the ones he played off the silver screen supporting causes important to him and spending time with his family and friends.
Wayne Family Estate is dedicated to making wines that inspire like the life of The Duke who pursued the American dream through hard work and determination. These unique traits can be found in each bottle of our handcrafted wines produced at our historic winery on the Silverado Trail in Calistoga, Calif. – Napa Valley.
Join us in celebrating The Genuine Article with each glass of amazing wine and support the John Wayne Cancer Foundation bringing courage, strength and grit to the fight against cancer.

The Duke Reserve - 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon - Napa Valley
John Wayne is the portrait of an America whose confidence embodies the virtues that are well worth preserving: the contempt for pettiness and love of hard work; the courage to be lonely in pursuing your goals; the respect for individuals in all their cussedness; and above all, the willingness to fight and die for a cause bigger than yourself. All of that is John Wayne, and it’s neither male nor female, conservative nor liberal. What it is, and always was, is American.
“All I’m for is the liberty of the individual.” – John Wayne
Our flagship Cabernet Sauvignon is a classic representation of the appellation’s preeminent varietal. Notes of black cherry, blackberry and plum are complemented by hits of toasted oak, dried currant and baking spice. Fine-grained tannins and ample brightness on the palate give way to a polished mouthfeel and exceptionally long finish.
