Elegant, balanced wines run the show here under Philippe Melka's direction, and their Sauvignon Blanc is absolutely worth the hunt. No tasting room, but Flora can set you up with tastings at local Napa spots.

Good to know about Plinth
No, Plinth does not operate a public tasting room. It's a production-only or by-allocation label, so its wines are found through retail, restaurants, or a mailing list rather than an on-site visit.
Plinth focuses on Cabernet Sauvignon, Bordeaux blend. Signature bottles include Limited-batch Cabernet Sauvignon from Houyi Vineyard on Pritchard Hill. When booking a tasting, ask which current release best represents the estate's style.
Plinth is in Danville, CA, in the Livermore Valley wine region. Phone: +1 717-442-3132. Confirm hours before visiting. Winery schedules vary seasonally.
Plinth was established in 2022, giving the estate 4 years to develop its wine program and farming practices.
The winemaking at Plinth is led by Philippe Melka. Visiting during special events or release weekends is often the best chance to meet the winemaking team and ask questions about specific vintages or techniques.
