Native to the hillsides surrounding Tyrol in northern Italy, Lagrein made its way across the pond to southern Oregon and California's Central Coast. Whitcraft produces what I would call a seminal example of the wine: fresh, highly aromatic, and of an incredible intensity without being weighted down.
When the Whitcrafts founded this pivotal estate, they drew influence from some of the best names in the wine world including Burt Williams, co-founder of Williams Selyem. Burt and Chris became not just colleagues but the best of friends as they built Whitcraft into a local treasure. The years went on, as they always do, and eventually Chris' son Drake joined the family business. In 2004, Drake assumed winemaking responsibilities at the winery and hasn't looked back since.
