We’re a family owned business with a commitment to growing quality grapes, because we understand that exceptional wines begin in the vineyard. We planted and have been producing Chardonnay, Petite Sirah and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes on our home ranch in the rolling Clements hills for over 19 years, and have been making wine for both domestic and international export even longer.
Because we’ve been in the wine industry for 50+ years, we understand what it takes to create a unique wine. Our goal is to build a long-term relationship with you by creating memorable wines and providing excellent customer service.
In 2013, Robert, owner and winemaker, was challenged to undertake a special project. His wife, Leslie, dared him to create an extraordinary sparkling wine. With his reputation on the line, he utilized the méthode champenoise process—labor intensive and time consuming. The result was a sparkling wine that one can enjoy on every occasion, or even on no particular occasion. Its fresh acidity is balanced with a smooth body, crisp fruit and silky yeast character, clearly demonstrating that a quality sparkling wine does exist and can be produced here in Lodi.
