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 is…

Awakenings: Spring Blooms on the Terrace – April 2020

Note: As we write, we are mindful that literally everyone in the world is coming to terms with a new reality in 2020. We are also very proud of the many local heroes in our community who are personally leading their businesses to support the fight against Covid-19. We join them to maintain commitments with other local service businesses under significant economic pressure.  We also note the many industry colleagues in other parts of the country and across the wine…

New Terrace Vineyard Taking Shape

?Short of having a baby, planting a vineyard is the most optimistic thing you can do in life.? The first vineyard site at Siboney Cellars is situated on the limestone terrace, at about 1430 feet elevation.

Harvest season puts every part of the winery into motion.  For the 2025 vintage to come, Barbara has worked out the barrel program. The team is literally on a roll in the seller, moving barrels into position. New and “nearly new” French oak barrels are slotted into the oxo line rack.  Meanwhile, several dozen barrels are pulled and retired this year. You’ve enjoyed some spectacular wines from those retired barrels! Moore is on the way. Just you wait. #barrelcellar #frenchoak #oxoline #harvest2025 #siboney
50 years ago. Shaw. Dreyfuss. Schieder. And a 25’ footer. Three tons of him.  So many scenes after this setup.
After a beautiful linear fermentation, the estate Merlot is ready for the press, and malo. 

Over the past three days we have hosted several groups for an incredible tasting experience in the winery. Sampling the newly fermented wine, followed by tasting the macerated grapes, you really get a true picture of the components and building blocks of wine. 

More than just a wine tasting, our premium tour really is the Best of Siboney!
