Organic, sustainable farming practices are core to the health of B Cellars estate vineyards. This includes no use of chemical pesticides or fertilizers. Vinescape, our farming company has an impeccable reputation for precision grape growing. Our hand-crafted wine and food pairings are made from scratch using ingredients mostly grown on site from our stone fruit orchards, olive trees, culinary garden, and our hen house. Our chickens produce eggs for our homemade breads, crackers, pasta, and other internal cooking needs. Even herbs and edible flowers used in garnishing our pairings are grown on property. Our bee apiary also helps contribute to the health of our vineyards and strengthens the local bee community while giving us amazing honey to share with our guests.
Hospitality

Producing more than 15 handcrafted wines; each is purpose built, unique to itself and true to our excellence standard.
