Our 17,000
square foot facility was designed by Jon Lail’s firm, Lail Design
Group, LLC, to reflect the marriage of Chuck’s
tech background, and Philippe’s Old World winemaking philosophy.
Completed in
2002, the winery is built of stone materials and terraced with landscape
plantings to fit beautifully within the natural landscape of the
vineyards that surround it. The winery design is nearly 100% gravity
feed in nature to increase the quality of the wine produced and
to substantially reduce the noise created by pumps and winemaking
machinery.
Designed to
make the least environmental impact, the facility generates its
own required energy using microturbines, generating the power to
temperature-control 13,000 square feet of caves.
