WHAT DOES GOLF HAVE TO DO WITH MAKING GREAT CHARDONNAY?


Everything. Because at least a couple times a week, Patrick Headley, our Director of Viticulture, takes


the narrow road up to Inspiration Point to drive a few golf balls toward our Deer Valley Vineyard. From


this vantage point, he gets a clear sense of wind speeds and the temperature of breezes sweeping across


our vineyards from Monterey Bay. Next time you visit, look up on the ridge, and you might see Patrick


working on his long game.
