August Updates

In the vineyard, the bunches are developing well with a speckle of color showing up on the Pinot Noir. July has been cooler than normal, which will likely push harvest to be later this year. Stay tuned!
In the cellar, we are preparing for bottling. First up two 2024 Rosés and Blanc de Noir. In September, we plan to bottle the 2023 Merlot and Cabernet Franc and the 2024 Pinot Noir and Cabernet Sauvignon. We try to do this as close to harvest as possible to minimize the time that barrels are empty. Sippers Club members have a chance to barrel taste this weekend!
Our Tasting Room is open Friday, Saturday & Sunday
Summer’s here & our hours are now Noon until 6pm!
The Webstore is always open. Check it out for all our selections.
2021 Extra Credit Cabernet Franc @ $25!
Back to School 3 Pack @ $79!

Contemporary Oil Paintings
Join us for an exceptional contemporary oil painting exhibition featuring the acclaimed works of Ed Penniman. Experience the masterful landscapes of California’s Central Coast by celebrated Santa Cruz native, whose paintings have earned regional recognition and national acclaim. Set amid the scenic Santa Cruz Mountains with spectacular vineyard views, this exhibition perfectly complements our winery’s rustic charm and award-winning estate wine. Don’t miss this unique opportunity to view extraordinary art while savoring exceptional wines in an unforgettable mountain setting.
Ed’s exhibit at the winery runs in conjunction with his 5 month exhibit at the Santa Cruz Museum of Art and History in downtown Santa Cruz. We are delighted to be able to present this body of work, pairing art and wine.
