Michael Muscardini has a long history of making outstanding single-vineyard wine out of some of the most prized grapes in the Sonoma Valley. His Cab Sauv quickly became one of our all-time favorites at the shop. The consistency in quality from his Pinot Grigio to his Petite Sirah leave us overjoyed to welcome him for a Winemaker Dinner at the Farm.
