Locally Grown
Carefully Crafted
First planted in the spring of 2001 by Steve and Creasia Gale, our vines have been a labor of love from the very beginning.
Each of our estate varietals are grown using organic farming practices and are dry farmed, producing rich, concentrated fruit. We prune our vines using the Old World technique of “head pruning” to protect the fruit and yield a fuller, richer flavor.
Every vintage is carefully balanced and artfully aged in French oak, making it ready to enjoy upon it’s release.
All that is to say: we’re really in to what we do, taking full advantage of our climate and soil to provide you with the best wine that California’s North Valley has to offer.
Our Estate Series Wines —
Like the winemakers of old, we’re always creating, crafting, and innovating which means our offering changes from vintage to vintage. But then again, some things never change—like our three deliciously perfected Estate Series Wines:
Primitivo
The Italian mother of the popular Zinfandel is ideally matched to the warmer climate of the North Valley. This old world style wine is fruity and delightfully drinkable.
Albariño
A famed Spanish varietal, this elegant white wine is enticing with soft tropical fruits and a smooth mouthfeel. Light citrus notes of lemon and orange peel blend with a minerality of riverstone.
Rosé
This dry and fruity wine will surprise you with its crisp, refreshing character perfect for hot summer afternoons. Pairs great with flavorful dishes like fish tacos, barbecue, game, Thai and Indian.
Mélange
Our premium red table wine blend yields a big, rounded and balanced flavor with a nice finish. Great with all kinds of food from pepper steak, to gamey meats and chocolates.
