Nickel & Nickel
| Established
in 1997 by the partners of Far Niente, Nickel & Nickel is devoted
exclusively to producing 100 percent varietal, single-vineyard wines
that best express the distinctive personality of each vineyard. Based
in Oakville, CA, on the 42-acre John C. Sullenger vineyard property,
construction of a cutting-edge winery facility housed within a vintage
1880s farmstead was completed in the summer of 2003, when the winery
officially opened to the public. Guests are welcomed at the Sullenger
House, a beautifully restored, late 19th century farmhouse with Queen
Anne detail that was built on the site in the 1880s. Guided tours and
tastings are offered several times each day, by appointment. Tours
begin at the Sullenger House and include a walk through the historic
Nickel & Nickel farmstead, restored 18th century Gleason Barn,
authentic post-and-beam fermentation barn and underground barrel aging
cellar. The tour ends with a seated, guided tasting of a selection of
four single-vineyard wines.
