Spring has arrived in Sonoma County, and with it, the start of a new growing season across our Estate Vineyards—Rio Este, Lagomarsino, Wild Oak, and Behler. Bud break is now underway, bringing a burst of life to the vines as they awaken from their winter dormancy.

This remarkable phase marks the beginning of the 2025 growing season as tiny buds emerge on the vines and signal the promise of what’s to come. From the cooler, elevated slopes of Lagomarsino Vineyard to the sun-kissed rows of Behler in the Sonoma Valley, each site experiences this transformation a little differently, reflecting the diversity and beauty of our Sonoma County estate.

Bud break is more than just a visual milestone—it’s the first chapter of a season-long careful cultivation story. Our vineyard teams are hard at work, tending to each vine with precision and care to ensure the highest-quality fruit. As we look ahead to another vintage, we’re filled with anticipation and gratitude. Thank you for being part of our journey—we can’t wait to share what this new season will bring.

Cheers to a vibrant 2025 growing season!
