Reserve
Discover tiny, owner-run producers crafting fewer than 200 cases per varietal—with rare library bottles poured by the winemaker.
Micro-wineries in this tier operate at human scale: one person or couple, two to three vineyard blocks, and hand-bottled bottlings. Visits are appointment-only and highly immersive, often centered around a new release, a late-harvest experimental barrel, or a library vintage from a standout year. Tastings take place in barns, garages, or vineyard tents—anywhere the wine is made and shared.
Guests sample out-of-production vintages—sometimes decades old—that reveal evolution and aging potential. Winemakers walk guests through decisions made during the vintage, from clone selection to closure choice. Barrel tastings here are direct from tank or cask, with notes on barrel composition, aging timelines, and blending ratios shared freely.
Because production is so small, many wines never leave the tasting room. This tier offers rare access to current vintages before release, library stock poured exclusively for your group, and time to learn what happens behind the scenes when every decision is intentional, not industrial. Expect to leave with a deeper understanding of quality at the edge of craft.
