Growing up, Rodney's father farmed grapes, cherries and kiwi which inspired the entreprenurial spirit of the third-generation Lodi grower to one day farm his own way. In 1985, he and his wife, Gayla, bought 40 acres of Old Vine Zinfandel-the same land where the winery sits today. The first plot was on Peltier Road, just north of Lodi. Instead of naming the Winery after themselves, they honored the road that led them to those gnarly vines and would eventually become the winery’s foundation.
Rod Spent 15 years building his reputation for quality grapes while growing his custom harvest business. A year with a surplus of grapes brought on the idea to build a custom crush facility, and a Best of Class award at the California State Fair for a 2005 Petite Sirah began the bottle side of their business. Today, they farm over 1,000 acres of Estate Grown, Certified Sustainable grapes with a focus on growing for quality.
Today, they own multiple vineyards:
Alpine/Realty: 162 acres | Dustin: 47 | De Vries: 122 acres | Marengo: 66 acres | Kennefick: 24 acres | Lockeford: 251 | Coyote Creek: 180 acres | Hade Ranch: 140 acres
And they grow a wide variety of grapes:
Chardonnay: 154 acres | Pinot Grigio: 43 | Sauvignon Blanc: 89 acres | Chenin Blanc: 13 acres | Viognier: 20 acres | Vermentino: 20 | Pinot Noir: 98 acres | Syrah: 54 acres | Petite Sirah: 55 acres | Zinfandel: 132 acres | Cabernet Sauvignon: 149 acres | Teroldego: 32 acres

The 2021 Quilceda Creek Cabernet Sauvignon is a wine for the ages. Potent aromas jump out of the glass, showing framboise candy, black tea, and a strong classic note of sandalwood. Savory cumin, sage, and garrigue round out this powerful nose. The palate is sweet and velvety, leading to an amazing crescendo of power and refinement.
Review:
The flagship 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Columbia Valley is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon (90% from Champoux Vineyard and 10% from Mach One Vineyard) raised all in new barrels. It's slightly deeper hued than the CVR and has a stunning nose of blackcurrants, smoked tobacco, toasted spices, and graphite with a beautiful varietal, herbal undertone that comes through with time in the glass. Deep, rich, full-bodied, and velvety textured, this thrilling Washington State Cabernet Sauvignon will benefit from 4-5 years of bottle age and evolve for two decades. This is unquestionably up with the greatest vintages of this cuvée ever made.
-Jeb Dunnuck 100 Points
The 2021 Columbia Valley Cabernet Sauvignon from Quilceda Creek is once again another monumental release. It begins to impress with its striking perfumed aromas of ripe blackberries and dark currants, which are joined together with crushed violets, graphite, tobacco, and hints of licorice all developing in the glass. On the palate this possesses a gorgeous full body that is impeccably structured with beautifully polished tannins that result in an utterly seamless texture. This continues to impress with its excellent balance and concentration combined with remarkable overall power and finesse. There is a lovely touch of underlying acidity that ties it all together and provides a wonderful sense of freshness that carries it into the lavish finish. While this is already stunning in its youth, it is ultimately an age worthy wine which will go on to evolve for decades. Quilceda Creek sets the benchmark for Cabernet Sauvignon in Washington, and this is a clear example of why they have earned that reputation.

Review:
100% estate-grown single vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon hails from the winery’s Dollarhide Ranch. The property is known for its steep rolling hills—reaching upwards of 1,100 feet—as well as some flatlands and seven lakes rife with wildlife. Aged for 20 months in 100% French oak (54% new), the wine offers a broad and generous mouthfeel with chewy tannins. The fruit is ripe and almost gobby, becoming more streamlined as it opens up. Dark berries are lush and sweet with hints of brown sugar. Acidity and chalky lift are well defined and have the mouth imploring for that next sip. Refined, elegant, polished, and poised

Bastgen Berncastel-Cueser Weisenstein Riesling Spatlese Trocken is made from 100 percent Riesling.
Bright, clean, fresh and zesty. Grapefruit like flavors. Fruity aromas and a nice minerality, typical of the Riesling grape grown on blue slate soil. Round, rich and a very long finish. The grapes for this wine are vigorously selected. Botrytis is not tolerated. At harvest the grapes are fully ripened, have a golden color, and a soft tartness. After a long spontaneous fermentation in a traditional 1000L barrel, the wine just reaches the dry stage. This gives the wine a creamy structure that interplays with ripe yellow and exotic fruit aromas.
They meticulously tend 4.5 ha (11.11 acres) of which 80% is Riesling. The soil is made of slate. Their vineyards are located in Kesten and Brauneberg, on a steep terrace, and planted to 50-year old vines. Fortunately for Bastgen, they own part of the famous Brauneberger Juffer Sonnenuhr. The vines produce very small, ripe berries that are very tasty.
