After nearly 50 years in the wine business, we understand the ins and outs of the industry, from the trends to the challenges ... . We believe that our success is due to our vineyard expertise. Each year renews in us an intense drive to understand, react to, and work with each vineyard to allow it to reach its full potential. This process, led by our General Manager and vineyard management team, is crucial for vineyard development and growth. We are a farming family with nearly 50 years of experience growing grapes in the Napa Valley. With more than 2,000 acres of planted vineyards, we sell 97% of our grapes to other premium wineries and reserve just 3% for the Laird Family Estate, which we established in 1999.
