The Wine Foundry is Napa Valley’s premiere custom winemaking facility. Launched in 2012 by a small team of creative entrepreneurs and like-minded wine industry veterans, we quickly set the standard for next generation winemaking by utilizing the latest technology and collaborating with the most coveted vineyards in the Napa Valley and Sonoma growing regions. The experience and no-excuses commitment to quality result in world-worthy wines, which routinely earn scores in the mid-90s. Our clients share a universal enthusiasm where wine consumption turns into wine collection and finally wine creation. The experience and satisfaction of creating your own wine and the pride of sharing it with others is what winemakers live to do. While we all love the idea of quitting our day job and moving our family to live in the vineyard, for most – it’s not realistic. The Wine Foundry lifts the veil to winemaking Oz and invites you behind the curtain to experience the journey first-hand.
