Jimi Hendrix was not a great musician because he played a Fender guitar.
You do not like a wine just because it comes from a specific grape.
It is the complex interplay between vine and place, like the musician and their instrument, that produces captivating outcomes.
We are interested in the synergy within and between our vineyard sites, thus the balance between them in a blend changes every year depending on the nature of the season, the expression of the site and frankly, our mood.
Anything we do is entirely overthought, you can be sure of it.
A blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon from The Grapes of Wrath and 40% Malbec from Tortilla Flat, the 2021 Eidos is a structured, classically-style wine that juxtaposes the length and the finesse of Mount Veeder with the broad, supple texture of Oak Knoll.

EIDOS Membership
We want to keep it simple: 6 bottles once a year, shipped free. Each shipment might contain a single vintage or a mix of current releases, with occasional special-release wines included. In addition to an invitation to our annual release party, because Ben is such a nice guy, each active member will be entered into our annual drawing to receive a free weekend stay at The Castle with a tasting hosted by the man himself. Of course, membership also includes access to special-release wines and formats, maybe even an odd party or two. We’ll see
