About Cinnabar Winery
Cinnabar Winery is named for cinnabar — the vivid scarlet mineral mercury sulfide (HgS), the most visually dramatic ore mineral in geology, whose distinctive bright red color made it valuable as pigment from ancient times. The Santa Cruz Mountains historically contained cinnabar deposits, and the mineral's geological presence gives the Saratoga estate its name. The 1983 founding makes Cinnabar one of the Santa Cruz Mountains' historically significant early estates.
