About Burning Bench Cellars

Burning Bench Cellars is a tiny, off-grid estate winery at 275 Nicasio Valley Road in Nicasio, Marin County, producing a single-vineyard Pinot Noir from its Moon Hill Vineyard in the Marin County AVA. The roughly three-acre vineyard, planted in 2002 to Dijon clones, sits high on the steep, south-facing slopes of the ridge separating the Nicasio and San Geronimo valleys.

A shallow clay-loam soil over fractured sandstone makes for an extremely low-vigor site, yielding small berries with intense, concentrated, mineral-driven fruit. The vines are tended entirely by hand, and the wine is made in a traditional, low-intervention Burgundian style. The vineyard and winery run entirely on solar power.

Production is very small, and visits are by appointment only, typically with reservations required and a small-group minimum. Because tasting days and times vary, contact the winery in advance to arrange a visit and confirm current details.
