Crane Assembly was founded in 2012 by three longtime friends to steward 6.5 acres in St. Helena, a site first planted in the 1860s by Dr. George Belden Crane. The vineyard's been making wine for over a century, but the winery itself is a decade old. They make a flagship Cabernet and a field-selection red blend from what they call one of Napa's most historic parcels.
