Wine Making

Trefethen Family Vineyards is a historic, family-owned estate located in Napa Valley’s Oak Knoll District, established in 1968. Known for its commitment to estate-grown wines and sustainable farming, the winery produces balanced, food-friendly wines that reflect the region’s moderate climate. Their Dry Riesling highlights a less common but expressive side of Napa Valley white wine production.

Grapes are harvested early from estate vineyards to preserve natural acidity and aromatic intensity. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks under controlled temperatures to maintain freshness and purity. The wine is produced in a dry style with minimal residual sugar. The overall approach emphasizes clarity, balance, and varietal expression.
