About: As farmers, our passion begins in the field farming the land. We are dedicated to the production of amazing wine produced from the highest quality of hand-picked fruit and sustainably certified through Lodi Rules. Producing premium, award winning wines from Napa Valley, Lodi and Clarksburg, we are Ambassadors of California’s finest. The curves of the waterways along our vineyards inspired the design of our signature “S” logo and artistically represents our family name, Spaletta. Inspired to capture the experience and significance of each moment in time, our trade-marked slogan “Embrace Every Moment” is printed on each bottle and exemplifies our passion for life.

What is your favorite undiscovered grape? Pinotage – We were inspired to craft both a Rosé of Pinotage and a White Pinotage (Pinotage Bianco), which have quickly become flagship wines at our winery. Since Pinotage is rarely produced as a Rosé or White Wine in the United States, we wanted to create something truly unique—an exciting find for wine enthusiasts looking for something truly special.

What was your first experience with an undiscovered grape? Loved our discovery of Pinotage as a rare varietal and expanded our knowledge of unique varietals upon our visits to South Africa.

What do you love most about the undiscovered grapes? As a winery that focuses on single vineyard, single varietal wines it is fun and exciting to discover lessen known varietals and share their unique characteristics with our community.
