World Malbec Day - April 17th

Come try our award-winning Papa’s Malbec April 17-19 at the vineyard or the creek.

Story of the Label
A Tribute to our fathers:
Craig’s father loved Argentina. Though he never visited, his passion for history led him to share its stories with his son, a winemaker. He spoke of the gauchos, the rugged Andes, and the vineyards that flourished under the Patagonian sun. These tales became a part of Craig’s identity, woven into his love for wine and family.

When his father passed in 2018, Craig sought a way to honor him. He turned to Malbec—Argentina’s signature wine—crafting a tribute in its deep, soulful character. The bold, structured grape mirrored his father’s spirit: strong, enduring, and full of depth.

The label tells a story of legacy, featuring images of Craig’s father, grandfather, great-grandfather, and great-great-grandfather from both paternal and maternal lines. Each face represents a thread in the tapestry of family, a reflection of those who came before. It is a visual lineage, a reminder that history is more than words—it is lived, shared, and passed down through generations.

This wine is more than a bottle—it’s a bridge across time, a tribute to love, heritage, and the unseen journeys that shape us. With every sip, Craig honors the past while creating something lasting for the future.

Tasting Notes
Elegant, smooth, with notes of ripe blackberry, plum, and a touch of warm spice, this balanced red offers soft tannins and a graceful finish.
