The estate is equally famous for its world-class contemporary art collection, which features striking installations throughout the property, creating a unique sensory experience that bridges fine art and fine wine.

WINE MAKING PROCESS
Winemaking is led by Vice President of Winemaking Megan Gunderson at their state-of-the-art, gravity-flow facility. The grapes are sourced from certified organic estate vineyards and select premium grower partners across Napa Valley. Following rigorous hand-sorting, the fruit undergoes small-lot fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel and concrete tanks using native yeasts to preserve site-specific character. The wine is aged for 18 to 22 months in French oak barrels, with approximately 50% to 65% new wood, to seamlessly integrate structure and complexity.
