Murphy Vineyards

Murphy Wines  --  The story

Peter Murphy founded Murphy Vineyards and Murphy Wines in 1995 and began making wines in 1995 with a special select lot of Cabernet Sauvignon grapes from Rosenquist Vineyard in the Mt. Veeder Appellation of the Napa Valley.

The distinction of Murphy Wines comes from small production from specific vineyard selections, intense quality control of vineyard operations, meticulous winemaking, and  barrel selection; each wine is a reflection of  weather, grape growing, winemaking, and aging.

Grapes for these wines come from vineyards managed or selected by Peter Murphy.  In 1987 Peter and Nancy Murphy established Ag Tech Services Inc. as a vineyard management and development business.  Ag Tech Services (ATS) specializing in small vineyard estates, Murphy Wines are made from grapes from these vineyards.

Over the past thirty years in the wine and grape business, Peter Murphy grew grapes and made wine in various jobs.  In 1995, involved in the intensity of vineyard management and development,  Peter Murphy arranged with his friend Art Finklestein of Judd's Hill Winery to make the wine for Murphy Vineyards.  Art's love of winemaking is reflected in each vintage.

The following wines were  made from vineyards managed or selected by Peter Murphy.  Each year  grapes from  specific sites were harvested and processed, each vintage has a unique characteristics that reflect the vineyard site,  farming, the weather and winemaking.  Each wine has a  story and character.
