The Canihan Family produces limited quantities of Pinot Noir, Syrah, and Cabernet Franc from our organic, biodynamic and dry-farmed estate vineyards in Sonoma Valley.

The Canihan Family vineyards are ideally located in the Sonoma Valley, and because we border on the Los Carneros Appellation, the vineyards receive the cool evening breezes and frequent fog from San Francisco Bay that provide for perfect grape growing conditions.

Biodynamic vineyard management practices, dry-farming, hand-harvesting only at complete ripeness, fermentation with naturally occurring native yeast, and no fining or filtering result in flavorful wines expressive of our “terroir”. Our commitment to elegant and flavorful wine is also evidenced by our low yields, which never exceed two tons per acre.

Our first vintage, 2004, is sold out and our 2005 is nearly sold out. We encourage you to try a bottle soon as only 200 cases of each varietal were produced.

We have created the Exuberance Label for those vintages that we believe to be the best of the best.

It takes exceptional fruit to make exceptional wine, and back-to-back Double Gold Medals in the largest wine competitions in America have validated our biodynamic farming practices and minimalist winemaking techniques.
