Created in 1992 by Bruce and Barbara Neyers, based in the heart of Napa Valley, Neyers Vineyards is committed to producing quality wines inspired by classic French winemaking philosophies. All grapes are picked by hand and then delivered to the winery in small batches. They are then laboriously hand-sorted and inspected. Fermentation occurs naturally without the use of cultured yeast or laboratorydesigned malolactic starter and bottled without fining or filtration. In 2002, Neyers Vineyards was named – Artisan Winery of the Year by Wine & Spirits Magazine.
