The history of Mayacamas is long, but most importantly, is still being written. Our team strives each day to connect the past, present, and future through our work – a commitment to the most important traditions, methods, and tools of previous generations is central to our path forward as winemakers.
In 1889 John Henry Fisher purchased this rugged mountain land and built the winery we still use today from stones gathered around the property. He began a winemaking tradition that has been carried forward by generations of families – Taylor, Travers, and our team to name a few – all sharing a distinct love for this remote place.
This historic winery space, as well as two others constructed in later decades, were gently restored in 2013 and provide a considered environment that allows for an enhanced level of quality and consistency in our wines. We believe strongly that our careful investment in Mayacamas is already starting to yield the finest wines the property has produced to date.
