…in the rugged hills of Mendocino county
there lived a princess, a peasant, and vineyards of great character

They Made Wines
in small batches, that were soulful and vivid.

They Found Grapes
from the hinterlands and extremes of altitude and climate.

They Lived There
on a coniferous ridgetop, and embraced the community and its bounty of treasures.

And Shared With Friends
to whom the door would always be open.
