We are a small family winery embarking on a venture that redefines small wineries. We are not big enough to be "boutique". We are "micro". We may even be "micro micro". But we're here to make the best wines possible and enjoy every moment of it with our family. The idea behind this venture is to build a family business for the next generation. We hope that one day, this might be something they want to be a part of. In the meantime we will be teaching them important life skills. Learn by doing!
Our winery is located in rural Lincoln, CA Near the intersection of Wise Rd and Crosby Herold Rd. We are at the base of the Sierra Foothills right where the hills start to roll. There are large granite outcroppings in this area and oak trees are abundant on our property.
Tastings are done in our open air structure "The Vino Veranda", it is positioned facing the western sky, overlooking our irrigation pond and pumpkin patch. Our accommodations are rustic and simple. We hope you visit, and please bring your sense of adventure.
Our winemaking journey started with a Chardonnay kit in 2012 and has grown from there. We still make Chardonnay, as it is a family favorite. Specifically, we love a big oaky, and buttery Chardonnay. We also love making lesser known varieties, such as : Pinot Grigio, and Pinot Blanc, Tannat, Nero D'Avola, Grenache, and Syrah, and Petit Verdot, and Tempranillo... well the list goes on. In 2019 we fermented about 20 different wines. Look for them to be released over the next 1-2 years.
Our tasting fee is $10 and comped with bottle purchase. We are outdoors so weather is a variable. Please email, call, or text to schedule an appointment. We ask for 48 hours advance notice but if you're in the area feel free to reach out and see if we can accommodate you! Usually we can accommodate weekends 11-5.
Please call for information on group tastings (over 8 people).
Be the first to hear about tasting events, release dates, and special sales. We also recommend following us on facebook for more frequent, less formal updates.
