GRAND ESTATES Artisan Craftsmanship

What does it take to create more 90+ rated bottles of wine than any other winery in the world?

It takes commitment.

Employing artisan winemaking practices – the same skills found at small boutique wineries – is the only way to guarantee that every bottle of Grand Estates will exceed your expectations. Whether it’s hand-stirring 8,000 barrels of Chardonnay every week (a process called Batonnage), or making sure that our Merlot has extra time to ferment on the skins for added complexity, we are committed to crafting wines of exceptional character in an effort to over-deliver in quality.
