Open: Year Round
Cantiga Wineworks! We are a small, family-operated winery based in the Sierra Foothills of California. The venture, founded by Rich and Christine Rorden with the support of their family and friends, is an outgrowth of a long-time, multi-generation, home winery. It has the benefit of the Rorden family's many years of experience in making exceptional Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Shiraz, and other varieties of fine wine.
We are committed to recapturing the art of making wine that benefits from long periods of cellaring, and to crafting a food-friendly style, thus reclaiming wine's rightful place on the dinner table.Our wines are produced using traditional methods seldom seen today.
Mission:
The intent behind our unique method is twofold:
- first, to recapture the art of making wine that benefits from long periods of cellaring;
- and second, to craft a food-friendly style, thus reclaiming wine's rightful place on the dinner table.
