Our Beginning...
It has long been our dream to produce a superb Sauvignon Blanc in the Napa Valley modeled on the best traditions of the incredible Bordeaux blancs of France. In 2005 we were fortunate to locate a beautiful estate vineyard in Calistoga which was planted over 50 years ago on St. George rootstock. Backdropped by the Palisades, the old vines thrive in this dry-farmed vineyard which has deep soil that is well suited to growing Sauvignon Blanc.
We are so pleased with the result -- our 2006 vintage, Terroir Coquerel and Le Petit Coquerel. Each wine is distinctive and delicious, reflecting individually the terroir of our Calistoga vineyard.
