Our Wines

AN IMPORTANT NOTE: Yes, Boyle MacDonald does sell out of our wines regularly. We try to get each release through a calendar year but often–and to our delight–the wines simply don’t make it due to high demand and small production. We recommend getting your wine upon its release and not to wait. Cheers!

Boyle MacDonald Wines began when husband and wife team, Craig MacDonald and Kate Boyle MacDonald, planted their family estate Napa Valley Vineyard to Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. The portfolio of offerings grew as Kate and Craig pursued personally farming and sourcing from additional Sierra Foothills vineyards. The portfolio includes a diverse selection of Estate Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, as well as Sierra Foothill Zinfandel, Merlot, Sangiovese and Montepulciano. In addition to varietal bottlings and lovely Red Blends, Boyle MacDonald has become well known for producing Provence style Dry Rosés and also for producing interesting and rare white wines from red varietals. For additional information on our current lineup of wines, including purchasing and shipments, please contact Craig directly at sales@boylemacdonald.com or 707-654-6058.
