This is the reason we make wine.

An inspirational variety for us at DaVero, the 2012 Sagrantino is an incredible example of what this grape is capable of in California.

Sagrantino rewards patience: enjoy now but expect it to improve through 2030 and beyond.

A unique estate blend of Sangiovese and Barbera, the two varietals enhance and play off one another, creating a deep, complete wine with structure, balance, and acid that portend a great future. It's an incredible food wine, and especially good with rich meat, pasta, and duck.

From our estate vineyards, 60% Sangiovese from our Hawk Mountain Vineyard (up high or 'alto') and 40%  Barbera from our Valladares Vineyard (down low, or 'basso').

Salads are never out of season, so this set is a perfect gift year-round.

A beautiful Moroccan ceramic serving bowl (which could double as a pasta bowl), plus a set of olivewood salad servers, an organic cotton tea towel, plus a bottle each of our highly coveted Estate Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Meyer Lemon Olive Oil, and Red Wine Vinegar.

Guaranteed to add color and zest to the table, plus a big smile to the recipient's face.

We released our very first Frizzante (Italian for 'lightly sparkling') in 2018, made with our Estate Moscato. It was every bit the sensation we hoped it would be - the 180 cases were gone almost overnight.  Never ones to rest on the past, we decided to push the envelope even farther with our 3rd release.  The result is stunning, it is every bit as delicious as the original but with far greater depth and complexity and touch more fruit aromatics.

Our partners, the Testa family, settled their farm in 1912 in Calpella, Mendocino – 4 generations ago. The hot days of this in-land village reflect the hot Mediterranean regions of Spain and Italy where the variety thrives. We source from Block 19, planted in 1962, farmed organically, and is totally dry farmed and head-pruned

The 2016 vintage shares playfully dark berries, a mild-inkiness, and mellow violets on the nose. The wine’s body is equal parts finesse and structure, and we expect it to age well, but, by all means, you can open it now.

A smaller vintage of 290 cases (open now through 2026).

This is the perfect gift set for the brunch (or afternoon tea) lovers in your life.

Rose Geranium Pound cake (6-8 servings), 12 oz. Organic Oat, Nut, Seed & Coconut Granola, a jar each of our infamous Meyer Lemon Curd and Strawberry Jam, plus a bottle of our deliciously smooth and crisp Frizzante (a sparkling blend of dry moscato and barbera rosato).

As always, we'll hand-wrap it a lovely package that will truly delight the recipient. Suitable for anyone, anywhere!

Vero is Italian for true, real, or authentic. In its inagural release, Vero Lot One is a non-vintage blend of our Biodynamic estate fruit.  From these wines, we create the best blend possible while ignoring varietal and vintage specifications. The final product is the culmination of our work, farm, and philosophy.

A magnum bottle of our Rosato d'Amici. Only 120 available.

Keeping with our heritage of blending Barbera and Sangiovese, for 2018 we looked to fruit from our growing partners in central Mendocino county to make this lovely rosato. Made completely naturally, as always, we kept it sur lie for five months to give it extra richness on the palate.

It's 2021 and we could all use an extra bit of TLC, especially when it comes form the healing powers of the farm!

In this gift set, the recipient will enjoy two organic olea soaps (lavender and spearmint/lemongrass), three bath salt bombs, a 4 oz. bottle of estate distilled lavender hydrosol, and a tin of Healing Salve (made with St. John's Wort and Arnica).

Simple, beautifully presented, and good for you, skin to soul!

The northeast expores of our steep, clay-rich Hawk Mountain Vineyard is perfectly suited to growing great Sangiovese. Our oldest vines, planted in 2000, show us the unique character of this exceptional site.

We released our very first Frizzante (Italian for 'lightly sparkling') in 2018, made with our Estate Moscato. It was every bit the sensation we hoped it would be - the 180 cases were gone almost overnight.  Never ones to rest on the past, we decided to push the envelope even farther with our 3rd release.  The result is stunning, it is every bit as delicious as the original but with far greater depth and complexity and touch more fruit aromatics.

This  is a less sweet style then most late harvest wines, with a residual sugar of only 9.5%. On the nose, you'll find stone fruit, white flowers, and a hint of honey. Enjoy on a hot day or relax for an after dinner treat by the fire. After opening we have noticed the bottle will develop a slight frizzante sparkle in the fridge- a happy biproduct of our natural winemaking style!

Rosato is the Italian name for rosé, which we make by harvesting a few weeks before full ripeness, then pressing quickly to yield a light, bright pink color.

Our co-fermented Greco-Fiano is an orange wine, meaning it gets fermented on the skins (much like a red wine). This is a unique style of winemaking that dates back to centuries ago, but has been revitalized in the last 20 years. They're still relatively uncommon but can be a quite intriguing addition to the right table or meal.

The skin contact adds a little color, making this wine more amber, but also adds tannin and structure.

This vintage in particular is aromatic, floral, bone-dry and much milder in acidity than the grapes would be if they were made in a white wine style. The notes of quince paste, brown spice and dried papaya make this an excellent pairing for earthier foods spiced nuts, dried fruits and strong cheeses.

Orange wines are not for every occasion, but then again -- is any one style? If you're feeling adventurous, give this a try!

Sagrantino is an astonishing grape, unlike any other. Rare even in Italy, it produces wines of incredible power, complexity, and finesse. The 2011 vintage displays classic Sagrantino flavors, nose, and tannins, and will show best when paired with grilled meats – especially lamb.

97 cases produced.

Our first ever orange wine, Coda di Volpe (or 'Tail of the Fox') originates from Campania, Italy. We made this limited 45 case production wine as though it were a red - fermenting on the skin and macerating for 57 days to extract all flavor, tannin, and color - giving it a style not found in any typical white wines, known as 'orange wine.' Served this versatile wine chilled to room temperature - aside sharp and gamey cheeses, grilled meat, fish, or oysters.

While the aromas lead with gentle-strawberry confections, the palate is assertive and tannic, becoming increasingly complex showing aperol, smoked game and tan leather. This magical contrast of gentle and firm is part of what makes Cannonau so seductive.

Our 2015 Barbera has tremendous depth and beautiful texture. This is Barbera with an opinion, showing concentrated red and purple fruit flavors, with nuances of rose, cinnamon, anise, cedar, and dill. Drink now with decanting or lay down in your cellar through 2025.

'Green-gold love juice!' - Iron Chef Mario Batali

Over two decades ago we imported trees to our farm in Sonoma's Dry Creek Valley from a 350-year-old Tuscan estate famous for its oil. Our goal was to produce a California olive oil that could stand with the world's best.

Our award-winning Dry Creek Estate oil is 'extra-virgin elixir' according to Appellation magazine, and star chef Mario Batali calls it 'spectacular' and uses it as the premier house oil at his legendary New York restaurant, Babbo. Consistently placed among the world's top olive oils, it is rich, fruity, peppery, and delicious. It's great with salads, pasta, soup, new potatoes, and grilled vegetables - or just for dipping bread.

The olives are hand-picked, then pressed the same day. The oil is unfiltered, first cold press, and is bottled in small batches throughout the year, with the unbottled oil stored under argon gas to keep it fresh.

375 ml bottle

This oil is made from our Estate olives (the same ones used in our award-winning Dry Creek Estate Extra Virgin Olive Oil, but harvested later when our Meyer lemons are ripe.

Crushed together using a traditional stone mill to extract the maximum flavor, this oil has an amazing lemon 'nose' and flavor atop a wonderfully buttery foundation.

Lemon oils are an age-old end-of-harvest tradition. For centuries, Italy's olive oil makers have celebrated the end of the season by crushing lemons together with the last olives of the harvest.

It's a wonderfully versatile way to add interest to many dishes. Try it as a simple dressing for fresh salad greens, for marinating and finishing fish and shrimp, or for drizzling over vegetables like fresh-picked green beans, fennel, radicchio, and asparagus, or...(Hint: check out the Meyer Lemon Olive Oil Cake on our Recipes page!)

The 2010 vintage is a beautiful Sagrantino: Bold in flavor, deep red in color  with powerful tannins, this wine will reward patience and decanting. Pair with power and complexity; grilled spiced lamb, beef, or poultry, and, of course, good company.

A remarkable 6 years after harvest, we have released our 2013 Sagrantino. This wine gratifies an early realization: this is the best vintage of Sagrantino we’ve ever produced!

For the uninitiated, Sagrantino originates in the heart of Italy, in a small town called Montefalco. It is the most tannic grape in the world, and is unknowably old and cherished by those who are allowed to grow it.

Because of the wine’s complex and nuanced nature, we highly recommend opening the night before, or double decanting a few hours before enjoying. With time or decanting, the 2013 vintage has a profound complexity of black currants, gamey meats, blueberry, black olive, and red fruit.

All of this makes an equally delicious and meditative wine. You just have to sit with it. Years of cellaring are possible, but we’ve held it back long enough so you can open and enjoy now. Other bottles, you’ll want to keep age for future affairs that deserve a capstone as special as this wine. (Enjoy now through 2040.)   

 The 2014 Pinot Nero is a unique example of the Pinot grape. With just 70 cases produced, it underwent 100% whole cluster fermentation, and then aged for 18 months in neutral oak to soften the tannins and develop a complex bouquet. Best results will reward patience, drink now through the late 2020's.

Planted in 1952, the Primitivo from the Ponzo family in the northern Russian River AVA is dry farmed and head pruned. Genetically identical to Zinfandel, this 425 case production is aged for 14 months in neutral oak. Fruit forward with a hint of spice on the finish; try with grilled meats or veggies. Drink now through 2026.

The 2015 vintage is wonderfully balanced between earthy mushroom and clay, to brighter fruits like cherry, pomegranate, and cassis. Drink now with decanting or age through 2028.

Our partners, the Testa family, settled their farm in 1912 in Calpella, Mendocino – 4 generations ago. The hot days of this in-land village reflect the hot Mediterranean regions of Italy and Spain where the variety thrives. We source from Block 19, planted in 1962, farmed organically, and is totally dry farmed and head-pruned

The 2016 vintage shares playfully dark berries, a mild-inkiness, and mellow violets on the nose. The wine’s body is equal parts finesse and structure, and we expect it to age well, but, by all means, you can open it now.

Our Estate Barbera is one of the true stand-outs of our Valladares Vineyard. The 2016 harvest gave us incredible fruit overall, which is reflected in this vintage by depth of flavor and bright, food-friendly acidity. The 2016 Barbera has characteristic notes of dark purple and blue fruits, magnificent acidity, and deep, smoky flavors that reflect our unique terroir. As is true of Barbera in Italy, this wine is drinkable young, but will evolve magnificently over the coming decade. Enjoy now after decanting or lay down in your cellar through 2030.

Pinot Nero is a Pinot clone from Italy’s northern mountains. Pinots are celebrated for their elegance, but our estate vineyard makes this classic a bit unruly. There is a “what you see is what you get” attitude that makes this wine genuine, but also edgy - this is Pinot's leather jacket wearing, motorcycle riding cousin.

Although Cannonau may sound obscure, most people recognize its more common French name – Grenache. Our Cannonau fruit comes from the Testa Vineyard in Calpella, Mendocino. The Testa family has lovingly dry-farmed this block for generations - the preferred method of the earliest California grape growers to sustain their vines. Dry-farming forces the vines’ roots to go deep in search of water and nutrients, so the resulting wines yield more flavor and complexity.

At first taste, you’ll notice how expressive this wine is: powerful spiciness is accompanied by brambly-cherry, with firm yet supple tannins that will reward aging. Enjoy now and through 2031.

Carignano was one of the first wine grapes grown in California. The Testa Family has grown it for over 100 years on their family farm in Mendocino county, dry-farming and head-pruning as in the old country.

Carignano is grown in Spain, France, and Italy becuase of its depth, broad fruit complexity, and crisp acidity, making it a delicious versatile dinner companion

The 2017 is perhaps the most complete we've ever made, and will age beautifully well into the 2020's.

520 cases (drinnk through 2027)

We experiment with different varieties to understand what belongs here, and sometimes we get lucky. The Greco and Fiano, two classic whites from Campania that we plant on a particularly gravelly section on the Valladares Vineyard, are thriving.

The Pinot family comprises over 150 variants, both red and white. This one originates in northern Italy; in 2009 we established a small block right by our winery, where it has surprised us with its quality year after year.

Our Primitivo (a.k.a. Zinfandel) is the reference wine of our Dry Creek Valley. Brought here from Puglia, it is originally Crljenak Kastlanski from Croatia.

Our Primitivo (a.k.a. Zinfandel) is the celebrated varietal of the Dry Creek Valley appellation. Zinfandel is originally from Croatia, where it is known as Crljenak Kastlanski. The grape found its way across the Adriatic Sea to Puglia, where it is known as Primitivo. Brought to California by Italian immigrants, it resurfaced as the wine we all know and love today.   

Our Primitivo (a.k.a. Zinfandel) is the reference wine of our Dry Creek Valley. Brought here from Puglia, it is orginalyl Crljenak Kastlanski from Croatia.

This is our first vintage from Bob & Joyce Litell's farm - Treborce Vineyard - on the breezy eastern bend of Dry Creek Valley. Our hands-off approach celebrates the vineyard's field blend of heritage clones, selected from 100+ year old vines. It's big yet nicely balanced, and best when paired with rich, savory meals. Open a day before, or age for a few years.

Sangiovese is widely planted in Italy becuase it makes wines that are not just delicious, but which reflect the distinct falvors of each vineayrd (terroir).

Crafted with high-quality fruit from the Biodynamically-farmed River’s Edge Vineyard, located near the shores of the Mokelumne River, between the bustling agricultural hub of Lodi and the base of the Sierra Foothills. On the nose, the wine features lofty aromas of ripe red fruits and wild berries, interlaced with fragrant hints of fresh tobacco, wild herbs, citrus rind, and rustic spice. In the glass, the deep flavors of ripe cherry, dark plum and black raspberry are layered with secondary notes of pomegranate, black olive, and spiced nuts. As the profile expands, these lush flavors are balanced with a velvety texture, smooth tannins, and a burst of vibrant acidity leading to a long, dry finish.

The end result is a well-made wine that is elegant, complex, and extremely user-friendly.

Food Pairings: Ripe cheeses, charcuterie, gourmet pizza, wild mushroom risotto, spicy sausage, roasted chicken with rosemary, grilled pork chops, and slow-cooked stews.

930 cases; Alcohol 14.2%

With a pretty light golden hue, the wine opens up with bright aromas of spring flowers, ripe tree fruits, fresh melon, green tea, magnolia blossom, and wet rock. In the mouth, the energetic notes of crisp green apple, tart pear, grapefruit and Crenshaw melon are intermixed with hints of Key Lime Pie, fresh sage, mineral, and a long, dry finish that invigorates, refreshes and stimulates the palate with each sip. Overall, a fantastic wine to serve on a warm afternoon or to complement fresh seasonal dishes any day of the year.

Food Pairings: Goat cheese, fresh veggies, prosciutto and melon, chilled split pea soup, gourmet salads, fresh shellfish, Sushi, chicken skewers with tangy aioli dip, and Vietnamese cuisine.

A case of our 2018 Dolcetto at a special member pricing of $25 per bottle.,

The idea behind this vintage of Dolcetto is simple; an everyday, easy-drinking, table red. Just as it has been enjoyed in Italy for years. Note the easy-to-open screw cap; we don't want you wasting any time enjoying this wine!

A case of our 2018 Trovato at a special member pricing of $25 per bottle (retail is $35/bottle).

When you hear Trovato in Italian, there's usually a ! in it because it means, 'found it!' This perfectly describes the joy we felt when we discovered this delightful blend of Carignano, Cannonau, and a touch of Charbono.

We've worked with these old vines for nearly a decade, always appreciative of each variety's separate nuances, yet sensing greater potential together. It took patience but Trovato is exactly what we had hoped for: a notable delicious, food-friendly wine that is a new and distinct experience unto itself. Found it!

Allegro Bianco represents a new direction for us - one born of many years of experimentation, seeking out blends that respect our climate but are not constrained by Italy's historical and regional traditions.

This fuller bodied white wine is a blend of our California grown Mediterranean varieties, and is a great substitute for chardonnay. If you're looking for something fun, different and fresh, this is it! With tart, tropical fruit (like papaya and cantaloupe) on the palate, floral notes of orange blossom and honeysuckly, and a mix of weight and acidity, this white wine offers layers of complexity while not using oak barrels. Did we mention how food friendly this is?

This is for serious fans of the estate Meyer Lemon Olive Oil. We hand bottle our just-pressed oil in a silk-screened, 1-liter glass jug. Stock up for the year or bring it back for a refill.

If only we could send our Chef Colleen to cook for you! Well, this is the next best thing: a jar of Colleen's Estate Tomato Sauce, a 3oz jar of Italian-imported anchovy fillets, Italian-imported pasta, Estate Extra Virgin Olive Oil and a bottle of our 2018 Russian River Dolcetto.

True Balsamic vinegar is unlike anything else in the world.

For starters, it isn't made from wine: it's made from 'mosto' — cooked-down juice from white Trebbiano grapes. Then it is aged in a series of ever-smaller barrels, each made from different pairs of woods, for a minimum of 12 years, during which time it takes on incredibly rich and complex flavors as it simultaneously becomes more concentrated. The end result is as close to magic in a bottle as you'll ever find. The really old stuff is well over $100 for 150 milliliters!

We're fortunate to have found a maker outside of Modena - the heart of the land of Aceto Balsamico Tradizionale - who follows the old ways. We're able to import a small amount of his 'younger' balsamico (only 15 years old!). Despite its youth, it has received the Consortium's highest rating of '4 leaves.'

Our soap maker uses a cold process method to create old fashioned soap using USDA Certified Organic oils.  We then age each bar of soap prior to selling.  The end result is a bar soap that is simply superior.

Maybe best of all, it doesn't 'melt' in the soap dish, so it will last a long time.

Choose between Lavender or Spearmint/Lemongrass flavors.

This is not your standard grocery store vinegar! We start with Champagne from the California wine country, then convert it to vinegar using the traditional, painstaking, risky Orleans Method, finishing the process over nine months. In contrast, most commercial vinegars are made in a day!

Even if you've had Champagne vinegar before, this is likely to be a revelation. The flavors are rich and bright, with a sweet delicacy that makes it perfect for a simple salad.

Three of our favorites: Satsuma Mandarin Orange Marmalade, Meyer Lemon Marmalade and Meyer Lemon Curd. Wrapped beautifully in a gift box and topped off with an olivewood jam spoon.

Colleen's magnificent herbed salt, in a windowed tin for your pantry.

Of the many fruit trees on our farm, none is more beautiful than the Indian Red Peach with its rich pink blossoms and deep-red fruit. It's too tart right off the tree, but simply spectacular as a preserve.

Colleen began making jams and preserves as a young girl on her family's farm in rural Wisconsin. She makes these preserves by hand, with just enough sugar to balance the tartness, then they're finished by a local artisan packer.

You and your kitchen will be ready for anything with this -- breakfast, lunch, dinner; sweet or savory. You're covered!

Ponzo Vineyard, located in Russian River AVA, has some of the oldest primitivo vines around (dating back to pre-prohibition times).

The grape primitivo is quite interesting, and can offer quite layered complexity. The grape clusters tends not to ripen evenly, owing to the fact that the cluster is packed very tight. The grapes on the outside of the cluster will reach full ripeness, but inside they will be slightly underipe, which actually allows the wine to exhibit both the bold fruit flavors you love about primitivo, but to also enjoy some quite herbaceous and earthy flavors.

Each wine in this vertical is unique in it's own right, but each growing vintage was perfect for creating age-worthy primitivo.

The wines deliver the big fruit-forward flavors and bouquet you'd expect, but do so with elegance and a long, lean finish. Old world in style yet distinctly Californian.

Quince is a magical and mysterious fruit. Inedible until cooked, it transforms into a beautiful ruby-red jam that is aromatic and rich, and delicious with toast or when paired with a sharp cheese like Manchego.

The green and pale yellow of the label are the colors of the skin and flesh of the ripe fruit; it turns deep red when cooked.

On the theory that quality begets quality, we make our red wine vinegar with exceptional California wines using the traditional Orleans Method first developed by Pasteur. It is a painstaking, labor intensive, and risky process that requires over two years of aging in small oak barrels to complete.

It's worth the wait! This vinegar is bold and full-flavored with varietal characteristics of raspberry and cherry and subtle nuances of oak. Its fresh and lively taste will enliven your dressing, sauces and condiments. 7% acidity by volume.

Note: Since it can only be produced in small batches, quantities are very limited.

Satsuma Mandarins, with their bright flavors, are one of winter's highlights. Our farm is blessed with two prolific trees whose fruit we blend with our Navel oranges to make this wonderful marmalade.

Colleen began making jams and preserves as a young girl on her family's farm in rural Wisconsin. She makes this marmalade by hand, with just a bit of sugar, then it's jarred by a local artisan packer. Delicious at breakfast - or with foie gras!

For all you red lovers, this is the perfect  bundle! Great on their own, or with your favorite winter dishes. Sip, enjoy, repeat.

The golden starthistle is a weed that first appeared in California alfalfa crops from seed imported from Eurasia in the mid-19th century. It spread rapidly and soon became established state-wide.

While it is an invader on the dry hills of Northern California, and a pest to cattle, it is truly nectar to the bees.

The honey is complex and sweet, and great in tea or desserts or on your toast.

Strawberries -- what else do you need to know?

Ours is a classic, largely because we start with exceptional, hand-picked, organic strawberries. And then do as little as possible, so what's in the jar is as close to nature as you can get.

Enjoy it on everything from PDJ sandwiches to....use your imagination!
