Fantesca Estate & Winery
Fantesca Estate & Winery encompasses 10 acres of vineyards, nine of which were planted in 1997 to Cabernet Sauvignon, with one acre to Petit Verdot. The vineyard is located on the southeastern side of Spring Mountain with tremendous varitations in slope. It is farmed by Jim Barbour in accordance with sustainable management practices, and the full-scale modern winery was built in 2001. Their cave, rumored to be an abandoned silver mine, stretches 280 feet beneath a ridge of Spring Mountain, offering spectacular storage and aging capacities for Fantesca’s wines and those of their custom crush clients.
Fantesca produces over 3,000 cases annually. It’s portfolio includes Russian River Valley Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, Fantesca Estate Cabernet Sauvignon and a red Napa Valley blend called All Great Things that is crafted by Heidi Barrett each year.
