“The winemaking and winegrowing teams are really one team. We have the same mission—to produce wines of great density and rich fruit character, wines of elegance and finesse that complement food. In this way, we combine the structure of the finest French wines with powerful fruit, California-style.”
- Geneviève Janssens, Chief Winemaker
