Spring Renewal – By Barbara Lecuona. Photos by Miguel Lecuona, Hill Country Light Photography. The Estate Merlot Vineyard at Siboney Cellars Inflorescence: The pre-flowering stage emerging from Bud Caps protecting the flowers fall away to reveal hidden beauty The “flower” takes form as delicate fronds surrounding a tiny green berry Not hard to imagine a grape cluster from this bouquet! We love to see the size and health of these bouquets across the vineyard! Learning to Understand the Estate…

Every Hour is Golden Hour in the Estate Vineyard

This time of year is when we remember that “wine is made in the vineyard”… and, in all candor: Wine is NOT Nature. VINEGAR is Nature. Wine is Culture. As in Agriculture. And specifically, Viticulture. It is the intentional work of careful, time-honored farming and vineyard management that allows every winemaker the opportunity to practice their craft. Left to its own Nature, a grapevine will sprawl, grow and survive for decades, producing grapes in order to perpetuate. But this…

We are often asked "What does Siboney mean?" The history of the world, or our humble winery, cannot be explained in a single post. Indeed, Siboney Cellars is connected to history through many origin stories... Today seems fitting to let this passage explain the factual basis of the original meaning of Siboney. In "Admiral of the Ocean Sea", the book written by Morison (and published in 1942), the author retraces - or attempts to sail - the 4 voyages of Columbus into the "new world", following the navigational routes and correlating the logs and letters from the crew as they approach Hispañola (Dominican Republic and Haiti) and Cuba. One paragraph catches our attention, highlighted in the picture below. We suggest you enjoy an original Cuban Sandwich and light a great cigar - and a very long one - and settle into your favorite history book on our terrace. #ColumbusDay #IndigenousPeoplesDay #monday #Siboney

Some days go beyond hospitality. Sunday will be one of those at Siboney Cellars. We start early, to honor a dearly departed friend of everyone at Siboney, by request of his family, to host a Last Light remembrance during our cigar club.

We follow that with our annual Sunday concert featuring Lauren Lizette Martinez presenting works of Cuban composer Ernesto Lecuona in her own original format, during a sold-out matinee performance.

These aren’t tastings…They’re not trends. No AI-driven programming. And they will not break through wine media for extra coverage.

These are just connections to people we love.

Wine may not be at the center of the day but, unmistakably, it is the connection that binds us to our culture, our community. And makes days like this possible. Makes life meaningful. And memories everlasting.

Loving what you do, sharing what you can do, and loving the people who connect with you in the world around you…, that isn’t trendy. But it is why we are here.
