A St. Helena staple since 1979, this winery is all about doing things their own way, making wine entirely from their 17 acres and specializing in noble grapes like Chenin Blanc and Cabernet Franc that have largely vanished from Napa. They went organic before it was cool, pioneered solar power in the valley, and basically wrote the book on sustainable winemaking.
