BENNETT LANE
"Randy and Lisa Lynch, who purchased a second home with a dozen or so acres of vineyards in Calistoga at the northern end of Napa Valley. A former racecar driver, Lynch also owns a NASCAR West division team and an ad agency. Rob Hunter, formerly of Sterling and Markham, signed on as consulting winemaker in 2005.
After purchasing their new home and the accompanying vineyards, the Lynches considered selling off their fruit, but a glut of grapes in the area was pushing down prices. Instead, they decided to make their own wine. They found a custom-crush facility, Bennett Lane, that happened to be for sale, and they bought it just in time for the 2003 harvest."

BUEHLER VINEYARDS
"Buehler Vineyards is a small, family-owned winery located in the mountains east of St. Helena in Napa Valley. Situated north of Pritchard Hill and Conn Valley, near the base of Howell Mountain, our hillside vineyards are planted primarily to Cabernet Sauvignon, with smaller blocks of old-vine Zinfandel.
Our family has been farming this beautiful estate for thirty-six years. We combine that experience and the unique terroir of our hillside vineyards with low yields, meticulous vineyard management, and minimalist winemaking techniques to create wines of uncommon complexity and depth, and to present these wines to wine lovers at reasonable prices."
