When Jan ShremWhen Jan Shrem — a Japanese-born publisher and passionate wine collector — commissioned Princeton architecture professor Michael Graves to design his Calistoga winery in 1987, the result was a post-modern architectural statement that the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art called an 'architectural festival' and that Architectural Digest featured as one of the most significant American winery buildings of the 20th century.
✓
The Clos PegaseThe Clos Pegase complex — named for Pegasus, the winged horse of Greek mythology who struck the earth with his hoof to release the waters of inspiration on Mount Helicon — houses both the winery and a significant art collection that Jan Shrem assembled over decades of passionate collecting.
