Our Caves

The building of these caves has truly been an arduous labor of love, with excavation through solid rock, encountering fractures of earth up to 18 inches wide and over 100 feet in length; evidence of earth's ancient movements from thousands of years past.

The 46,000-square foot underground caves, adjacent to the mountain winery, provide the ideal conditions for the aging of the wines to develop and mature gracefully. The distinguishing factor of these caves is their size, which are physically bigger than any other cave in Sonoma County, with the capacity to store three vintages at one time.

Taller and wider than most, the complex spans 436 feet in width and extends into the mountain 390 feet. The two 16-foot wide by 14-foot high main access tunnels are flanked by two entrance portals, and the six 14-foot high by 13-foot wide storage tunnels give these caves an unparalleled expansive feel.
