Producer notes- Originally known as Grimm Vineyards & Wine Vaults, owned by Adam & Jacob Grimm (yes, the Brothers Grimm!) – the Seps' renamed it Storybook Mountain to acknowledge it's fairytale beauty and honour the Grimm brothers. The burned-out winery, with caves dating to 1883, were restored by Jerry & Sigrid Seps, who released their first commercial vintage exactly 100 years after the Grimms established the original winery. On a 100-acre estate, 40 acres of east/north-east facing vineyards at 600-1200 feet, are home to 105 blocks of 28-35 year-old vines. This is the coolest microclimate in Northern Napa (typically 10º cooler than St. Helena), and the aspect (and red clay-loam soil) provides a longer, more even growing day, leading to Storybook’s signature style- intensity without weight. Herbicides and pesticides have never been used, and the vineyard is Certified Organic.
