Farming and winemaking is in the blood of Owner and Winemaker, Kirk Venge, “When I was growing up, working in the vineyard and winery gave me a wonderful sense of partnership in my family’s way of life; it was hard work, but I loved it.”

Born and raised in Rutherford, in Napa Valley, surrounded by budding and iconic vineyards and wineries, Kirk Venge was instilled with a pursuit of excellence in his vocation. He learned the rhythm of winemaking as a young man, helping in the family vineyard throughout the growing season, experiencing the labor of harvest, the love of crush, working alongside his family in the winery.
