When the Bishop was handed a glass, he exclaimed his satisfaction, begging to know what the wine was called. At the time, there was no name.

William’s clean, rustic, style captures a sense of American pastoral elegance, in great contrast to the louder architecture of surrounding wineries. William’s vision infused ideas of design, land, and history into his winery, crafting a space in the valley reminiscent of the areas honest, agrarian roots.
