Château Musar has become one to the most esteemed wineries in the world. In 1984, when

complex with solid tannins. Some tea and vanilla aromas, coffee brown sugar. These wines are so

make in the form of their fruits.” – Doug Frost, MW, MS, co-owner
The Crane Assembly By David Phinney, Winemaker
Dr. George Beldon Crane first established grapes on this site in 1885, making it one of the oldest
vineyards in the Napa Valley. Currently eight acres are in production including four acres
containing a mixture of Crane’s original plantings with some newer (1930s) vines. These four
acres have been continuously farmed for over 130 years. David Phinney (founder of Orin Swift)
bought these eight acres in 2012.
