Acacia Winery, also known as Acacia Vineyard or simply Acacia, is a winery in the Carneros Valley appellation in Napa County, California, United States. Acacia Winery was founded in 1979 by co-founder Michael Richmond and others on Las Amigas Road. [1]
The winery primarily produced Pinot Noir and Chardonnay wines but was acquired by Chalone, Inc. in July, 1986. Acacia's wine lines includes Reserve, SVS wines, Carneros blend, A, from Acacia (fruit from the central coast), Estate pinot (2001-2002). [1]
In 1987, Michael Richmond represented Acacia Winery in the International Pinot Noir Celebration by Linfield Events. It was noted in the event that 1/3 of Acacia's Chardonnay production grown on its estate and their Pinot Noir was outsourced to other vineyards in the Carneros area. [2]
Acacia was founded in 1979 by Michael Richmond and other partners. It was an important influence in establishing the Los Carneros wine region. [3] The winery focused on Chardonnay and Pinot Noir wines. It has been described as a Pinot Noir "cult" winery during this period. [4]
In 1986, Acacia was sold to Chalone. Since the 1990s, Acacia has focused on Chardonnay wines, as well as some sparkling wine. Acacia also bottles under the Caviste label. The annual production is around 55,000 cases. [5]
In 2005, the Chalone Wine Group was purchased by beverage giant Diageo.
In 2016, Treasury Wine Estates purchased the Diageo wine portfolio. Soon afterwards, the winery building was purchased by Peju Province Winery. [6] Treasury Wine Estates retained the brand and continues to produce and sell Acacia wines.
