"Ultimately, of course, it is human intervention that turns a landscape into a vinescape. Selection of plant material, methods of cultivation and, perhaps most important, timing of the harvest have everything to do with how the land is expressed in wines."

Regusci Winery
Built in 1878, the T.L. Grigsby-Occidental Winery, located on the Regusci Ranch, is an example of a "ghost winery" (the name given to the few remaining early Napa Valley wineries that were in existence between 1860 and 1900) that has been impeccably preserved.
Owned and farmed by the Regusci family since 1932, the historic winery was reestablished in 1995 by grandson Jim Regusci. Jim and winemaker Charles Hendricks crushed their first vintage of Stags Leap District Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Zinfandel estate wines in 1996, and opened their doors to the public in June 1998.
