This week on the hill

Harvest wrapped on October 19

Tomás and the crew brought in about 58 tons from our own rows over 18 days, the last of it Pinot Noir from the top of Tallow Ridge. The wines are in tank and barrel now, and you can see them from the tasting bar.

This is the quiet part of the year: fermentations finishing, barrels being topped, the hill turning gold. It is a good time to visit because there is room at the bar and someone has time to talk.

  • Barrel tasting with the winemaker, November 7
  • Live music in the tasting room, Sundays 1 to 4
  • Holiday release party, November 21

Coming up

Release parties, barrel tastings and the Saturday pizza truck. Sign up here when an event has spots, and walk in when it does not.

The wines

Bottles, cases and a little something for the holidays

Everything we make is for sale at the tasting room, by the bottle or the case. Six bottles or more are 10% off, club members take 20% off, and we wrap gifts at the counter for free through December.

We do not sell wine through this website. Club shipments and phone orders leave from the cellar to a short list of states, and an adult 21 or older has to sign.

  • Estate Pinot Noir from $38, Reserve from $62
  • Gift cards for tastings, tours and events
  • Free gift wrap at the counter

What guests write after a visit

    “We stopped on a Sunday with no plan and ended up staying two hours. Dana poured, answered every question and never pushed a bottle. We left with the Estate Pinot and a note to come back for the club weekend.”

    “The cellar tour is the best $55 we have spent in the valley. Our guide let us taste out of a barrel, and it was fascinating to see how different two barrels of the same wine could be.”

    “We held our rehearsal dinner in the Barrel Room. Dana planned it with us for months, the room was beautiful and nobody wanted to leave. Several guests have joined the club since.”
