We are vineyard managers for some of Napa Valley's most esteemed wineries and vineyard owners. Our natural focus as growers is on the grapes themselves.Through our three generations of experience we have learned one thing for sure - it takes great grapes to make great wine. We are proud to offer handcrafted wines in small lots from the finest vineyards.
The Madrigal family originally came to California via Numarin Mexico in 1932. My grandparents boarded a train bound, or so they thought, for California. On a cold and snowy day the conductor told them it was time to get off and that they were in California. They were actually in Kansas and it was the middle of a cold and windy winter. My grandfather ended up having to work for the railroad for a few years until they saved enough money to continue on to California. When they arrived in California, they originally stopped in Azusa, a suburb of Los Angeles. My grandfather, not satisfied with his prospects in Azusa in '37, traveled north to join a cousin in a town called Calistoga. Convinced that a better life could be had here, he sent for his family and settled in a cabin that's a stone's throw from what is now Madrigal Estate.
