Passion for excellence
Culmina Family Estate Winery is the result of a lifetime of passion and experience in the wine industry with one simple goal: to craft the highest quality wines possible from our unique terroir.
Our Winemaking Philosophy
A love and appreciation for the craft of making fine wine underscores every detail at Culmina Family Estate Winery and is embedded in all that we do, from the vineyard to the cellar.
Our winemaking philosophy revolves around two principles: gentle handling of fruit and minimal intervention of wine. We employ a combination of traditional practices and leading-edge technologies to preserve the beautiful, natural character of our wines.
