They share a long standing passion for Chenin Blanc and fondness for the more obscure grape varieties. After graduation, Chris went to work for Pine Ridge as an Enologist, and Richard went to Bonny Doon as their distiller. Shortly after, their friendship was solidified over Chenin Blanc with the creation of their first wine "Pointe Blanc". Currently the Vinum Cellars team is working with over 14 grape varieties from El Dorado and San Benito Counties to Napa Valley. <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/napawineco/Product730 TITLE="Vinum Cellars 2000 Leaky Lake Cabernet Sauvignon">Vinum Cellars 2000 Leaky Lake Cabernet Sauvignon</A> -- $90.00 -- Planted in 1974, Leaky Lake Vineyard earned its name from the shale bed lake on the property.
