Twomey Cellars originates in a single Napa Valley vineyard, the Soda Canyon Ranch, where Merlot grows with such extraordinary complexity that it calls for a wine of its own. To showcase the brilliance and balance of these grapes, winemaker Daniel Baron and the owners of the vineyard, Ray Duncan and his family, incorporate the Old World, labor-intensive approach used by classified growths in Bordeaux. Daniel Baron, who learned to make wine this way while working with some of the greatest winemakers and cellarworkers of Pomerol and St. Emilion, demonstrates that the meticulous care involved provides a pure reflection of the Duncan's vineyard.
Today Duncan watches carefully over the progress of Twomey Cellars, extending a commitment to quality in viticulture and winemaking that he established more than thirty years ago. He has turned to the next generation of Duncans to manage the winery and sustain his exacting standards. The Duncan brothers, with decades of executive experience in the wine industry and other fields have forged a partnership to fulfill the striking potential of their family's vineyard.
