Winery Our approach to winemaking at Tin Barn Vineyards is that the vineyards are the key to making great wine. All of the vineyards we work with are found in unique locations in Sonoma and Napa counties. We feel that the physical location of each vineyard and the dedication of the vineyard owners to producing great fruit provide us with outstanding grapes from which to make great wines. We have forged long-term relationships and grape contracts with our growers to insure the consistency and quality of our grape supplies. All of our grapes sources provide relatively small quantities of grapes such that our production from any one vineyard will be less than 1000 cases annually.
