Cypher Winery

Hours: Year Round

So, people continue to ask, why Cypher? After growing Four Vines to 140,000 cases, Christian and I longed for the old days of running and working a smaller winery. I was anxious to get out from behind my desk of number-crunching madness and re-claim my title of "Mother-Trucker." (Yes, I hauled grapes from our many vineyards at pre-dawn, death-o-clock in the morning runs during the months of harvest in our early years as a winery.) I longed to get back into the vineyards and enjoy the diversity of daily responsibilities required in running a smaller operation. While Christian loved developing and growing the Naked Chard and OVC projects, he wanted to dedicate his time towards pushing his creativity with high-end "extreme winemaking." So, here we are.... on the other side, loving life.
