About Trefethen Family Vineyards
As our sole source of grapes, our estate vineyards define our wines. Everything begins here. For over fifty years, we have been students of this land, and the more we learn, the more questions we have. Today, we farm at a level of detail that would have been unimaginable three generations ago. And yet, every harvest reveals more about the singular characteristics of each individual vineyard block, and the vine rows within it. Our awe for this place, and its unending complexity, is undiminished and we hope that you can taste the vineyard and the vintage in the wines that we craft. Learn more.
