About
Started in 2013 by Chad + Michelle Westbrook Hinds, striving to find a voice for California Cabernet Franc and Chenin Blanc. In the Spring of 2018 they began planting a vineyard
in the California Alps of Siskiyou County, using the permaculture methods laid out by Fukuoka. In the spirit of this new project (iruai) they have begun experimenting with wine
styles and varieties originating in the Alps of Europe. The wines seek to channel a sense of place with the goal of showcasing California’s diversity.
