The Rodrigue Molyneaux Estate Winery & Vineyard is owned and operated by Nancy & Garry Rodrigue.

Garry is the principal winemaker and vintner. An emeritus professor at UC-Davis in the Applied Sciences, Garry's background gives him the technical skills needed to understand the chemistry of making good wine. He loves to peruse the shelves of the campus libraries for the perfect book that will improve his wine. But mostly, he likes to be in the vineyard tending the grapes, for he believes that good grapes are the key to good wine. 

Garry practices reserve farming techniques. This requires intensive monitoring of the watering and pruning techniques, especially keeping the yield down to three tons or less per acre. Although the yield is smaller, the grapes will have more intense fruit flavor. Nancy and Garry think these techniques explain why their red wines are so robust, fruity and complex.

Garry & Nancy are almost always in the winery to answer questions or to just talk about their wine. They enjoy sharing their wine and invite experts and novices alike to come by on the weekends.
