Kenwood Vineyards
California, the most populous state of the United States, located on the Pacific coast of North America is bordered by Oregon, Nevada, Arizona and Mexico. The four largest cities are Los Angeles, San Diego, San Jose and San Francisco. California is also the home of and wine producing regions such as Santa Barbara and Northern California's Wine Country.
At Kenwood, grapes from Sonoma County's finest vineyards get the attention they deserve. The harvest from each vineyard is handled separately within the winery to preserve its individuality. This small lot winemaking allows their winemaker, Pat Henderson, to bring each lot of wine to its fullest potential. In the California tradition, Kenwood Vineyards produces a full line of premium quality varietal wines including Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Zinfandel, Pinot Noir and Merlot.
Kenwood Vineyards was founded in 1970 when wine enthusiasts from the San Francisco Bay Area refurbished and modernized the former Pagani Brothers Winery, originally established in 1906. Ideally located in the heart of Sonoma Valley, Kenwood Vineyards, named after the town of Kenwood, is committed to producing premium wines that reflect Sonoma County's finest vineyards and define the region's grape varieties in their true character and style.
The winery produces classic varietal wines such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Zinfandel, Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Noir, Gewurztraminer and Merlot. Kenwood Vineyards has earned the reputation for crafting wines that offer consistent high quality and outstanding value at every price level. The winery sits on a beautiful twenty-two acre producing estate. Kenwood's wines are produced from both these grapes grown on site, as well as from fruit sourced from some of Sonoma County's finest vineyards. Using the cuvee winemaking method, the harvest from each vineyard is handled separately to preserve its individuality and true character.
Kenwood is housed in the original winery buildings. Inside, the winery has been redesigned with winemaking versatility in mind. More than 125 stainless steel fermenting and upright oak tanks are used in a combination with 14,000 French and American Oak barrels giving the winemaker flexibility and diversity in production. Kenwood Vineyards are one of the best in the wine business and are aware that quality is not accidental but by high intention and perseverance and are devoted to follow it on any backgrounds.
