From vineyard to bottle

The perfect moment begins long before the first pour.

Cellared and bottled in Lodi, California, our award-winning wines begin with premium grapes from a celebrated appellation for fine California wines. The vines are set among rolling oak meadows, where thoughtful farm practices help each vine find its balance. We look for the moment when fruit, freshness, and structure come together — then let the vineyard lead.

A bottle opened is a table gathered.

Montpellier began in 1989 with a friendship and a shared love of wine. Ever since, our wines have been made for the moments that matter most — a meal cooked for friends, an evening at the theater, an afternoon among paintings, a family table that runs long into the night. Cultured, approachable, and authentic: wine as one of life's quiet arts.
