Wetmore Vineyard
Our Wetmore Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon is named after one of the Livermore Valley’s most prominent pioneers, California’s first agricultural commissioner renowned for planting vine cuttings from many of Bordeaux’s top Châteaux in the temperate Livermore Valley in the 1880s. The descendants of vines Wetmore brought from France thrive today in the gravelly loam soils of our certified sustainable estate vineyards between the Arroyo del Valle and the Arroyo Mocho, streams flowing from the southern hills of the Livermore Valley. From their origins in Margaux in the 19th century to the present, only the best of these Cabernet Sauvignon vines have been selected for each new generation planted. And they are prized for making wines with intensity, depth of flavor, and rich, lush body.
Wente Vineyards
Wente Vineyards is the country's longest, continuously operated family-owned winery, founded in 1883.
Blending traditional and innovative winemaking practices, we draw from our estate vineyards in the Livermore Valley and Arroyo Seco, Monterey appellations to create an outstanding portfolio of fine wines. We are recognized as one of California’s premier wine country destinations featuring wine tasting, dining, concert experiences, championship golf and more.
Family Owned Estate Grown Sustainably Farmed
These vineyards are our legacy to our children – the fifth generation of the Wente family and beyond – and we make every effort to preserve what nature has so generously provided. Phil Wente, 4th Generation Winegrower
