Owner Peter Mauel grew up in the United Kingdom and spent extensive time at wine houses in Burgundy and Bordeaux. Although he moved to California in the ’90s to pursue an MBA and career in the software industry, he decided in 2003 that his calling and passion was to create handcrafted premium wines. At first, he scoured the Sonoma Coast, Carneros. Sonoma Valley and Napa Valley for fruit sources and a location to make wine. Then in 2010 he acquired the Carneros Estate Vineyard in Sonoma and started the creation of his estate winery, where all his wines are made and tasted.
