THE inspiration for our Rarecat Seal is a Carthaginian coin dating back to 320 - 300 BC. One side of the coin shows a picture of Tanit, Goddess of Carthage wearing an oriental tiara, while the other side reveals a majestic lion in front of a palm tree. Tanit is possibly one of the first rarecats, a woman of such beauty and charm she launched a new nation. Although there are no lions in the Napa Valley, our Old Toll property and surrounding open spaces are home to the majestic mountain lion. As for the palm, coincidentally, our home here is named after eight palm trees which define our property. We hope that this Rarecat seal becomes a symbol of the rare beauty embodied in each of our bottles of wine.
