History

Established in 2004.

We are a small, artisanal family owned winery located in the heart of the California wine country in Healdsburg, California. We are proud and passionate to bring you wines made from the remarkable vineyards we tend with our growers in Napa, Sonoma, Mendocino and Monterey Counties. We craft our wines to showcase the grapes and their vineyard provenance that, we trust, also allows for the subtle nuances of the appellation to shine through. This philosophy allows us to create wines that are truly an optimum expression of our style.

Meet the Business Owner

Nancy W.

Business Owner

Our Winemaker, Nancy Walker, has had the luxury of working as a winemaker in California for the past 22 years. Based in Mendocino County, Nancy has traveled throughout the region visiting growers from Temecula to Portland and from the Shenandoah Valley of the Sierra Nevada Mountains to Albuquerque, New Mexico. Through her travels, Nancy has developed an appreciation for the regional and local differences that each unique vineyard produces and with this, she is able to tend to our vineyards with our small growers throughout the state, to produce wines of concentration and distinction.

Nancy is a graduate of the University of California at Davis, renowned for winemaking education. Her winemaking career began in 1984, as a cellar worker at McDowell Valley Vineyards. From there, she honed her skills at many local wineries starting with Geyser Peak (1984 – 1985) as Wine Chemist and QC Technician. From there it was on to Dunnewood (1985 – 1990), where she was the Assistant Winemaker for 5 year
