The Winery:
Founder Reynaldo Robeldo, Sr., was a Mexican immigrant who started as vineyard laborer, and worked his way up to the position of vineyard manager. After several years Mr. Robledo became a sought after vineyard consultant. Along the way he and his family purchased 14 vineyards which total 200 acres in Napa, Sonoma and Lake Counties. The winery is done in a beautiful Spanish Mission style with the tasting room decorated with pictures and items that celebrate their Mexican heritage.
|
The Vineyards:
The vineyards in Lake County produce Pinot Grigio, Pinot Blanc, Tempranillo, Petite Sirah, Zinfandel, Muscato and Barbera. The Napa Valley vineyards is where the winery sources its Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes. The Carneros vineyards are planted to Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Merlot and Sonoma has Sauvignon Blanc. Most of the grapes from these vineyards are sold to premier wineries in the region with a small supply kept for the estate wines.
