How do we make wondrous Sonoma Pinot Noirs and Syrahs?
Connor Brennan Cellars is a family wine adventure with a passion for making small lot hand crafted vineyard-designate Pinot Noir and Syrah from cool climate vineyards located in the bucolic Sonoma wine growing region. We are very selective about the vineyards we choose to work with. Like us they are mostly small family owned operations that are managed with great care and with the goal of growing the very best wine grapes in Sonoma. The high quality fruit is gently harvested at the peak of ripeness.
We have recently joined the ranks of small vineyard owners with our first estate property. After many years of wine making we dreamed of becoming "winegrowers" where we could exercise full control from vine to bottle.Balinard Vineyardswas planted in the spring of 2007 which is the first step in realizing this dream.
Unlike large wineries we baby our wines from grape to bottle making every effort to fashion wine that is a natural expression of the vineyards from which the fruit comes. This is not a wine-industrial-complex approach to wine making. We fuss over every small lot and barrel in making some of the very best wines found in Sonoma. Our goal is to craft elegant and food friendly styled wines. We hope you enjoy the passion we devote to each bottle.
