Discover The Wineries

"As a small winery we can put more time, attention, and care into our wines (than the larger wineries can afford to, really). So in order to make wines of the highest quality, we: 1. Select vineyards that are farmed with the greatest level of care. 2. Focus on single varietal and single vineyard. Single vineyard allows us to focus on "the place" the grapes are farmed and single varietal will show how each varietal is affected by that place (i.e. soil and microclimate)."

"Using just 20 select acres for their own brand, the Derbys continue to sell the remainder of their 400 planted acres. The diversity of each vineyard is the core of Derby Wine Estates. In 2010, the Derbys purchased the historical Paso Robles Almond Growers Building and began rejuvenating it. In April of 2014 the building opened and is now home to our full production facility and Tasting Room. We offer tours of the building daily."

"Every day by 4:00pm, the horn sounds and the train goes by Oak Ridge Winery, at crossing #842837B, splashed with vibrant graffiti – a stark contrast against the concrete building it passes. In Lodi harvest lore, railroads were a method of transporting grapes during harvest; now, an industrial relic no longer suited to the romance of winemaking. But romance isn’t something that Oak Ridge is overly concerned about – what we are concerned about is quality, heritage, and authenticity."

"In 1987, Argyle was founded by pioneering vintner Rollin Soles, with a belief that the cool-climate of Oregon’s Willamette Valley was ideal for producing sparkling wines. Our winemaking program now includes sparkling wines, Chardonnays, Pinot Noirs and Rieslings, which have earned acclaim for their elegance, vineyard-driven character and uncommon ageability. "

"Since 1927, when John Pedroncelli, Sr. purchased vineyard and a small winery in Sonoma County's Dry Creek Valley, two elements remain unchanged: the exceptional place the Pedroncelli family farms vineyards, and the family's dedication to making fine wines."

With 350 acres of vineyard strategically located in several of Napa Valley’s finest growing regions, Markham Vineyards selects grapes from several microclimates to achieve balanced and rich wines. Knowledge and experience are combined with Mother Nature to produce grapes for our award winning wines. Our ranches also allow us to craft the Estate designated wines that are exclusively available in our Visitor Center and provide the basis to create consistent blends each and every vintage.
