Bouchaine Vineyards
WINNER

Bouchaine was founded by Gerret and Tatiana Copeland and under their thoughtful stewardship, has emerged as one of the Carneros AVA’s most respected producers of sustainably-farmed Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. The estate is comprised of 104 acres, including the Hospitality Center, designed in the form of a welcoming embrace and complete with a state-of-the-art open kitchen and manicured gardens complete with picnic tables.
The vineyards are greatly influenced by the adjacent San Pablo Bay, where cool breezes and the daily influx of fog allow cool climate varieties to shine. The substantial daily temperature shifts also help develop beautiful acidity in the fruit, resulting in wines with vivid energy and texture. Notably the first “Fish Friendly Farming” certified vineyard in Napa Valley, the winery is also Napa Green land- and winery-certified. If one sentence can encapsulate the energy of Bouchaine, it is the winery’s trademarked slogan, “Wine Makes you Happy™.”
