About GlenLyon Vineyards & Winery
GlenLyon Vineyards & Winery combines two naming elements with Scottish and French heritage: glen (the Scottish word for a narrow mountain valley, from the Gaelic gleann) and Lyon (the French city whose name the Clan Lyon of Scotland also carries in its own heritage). Together they create a compound name that evokes both the narrow hillside valley the estate occupies and the dual Scottish-French cultural heritage the naming draws from.
The Highway 128 estate in northern Alexander Valley produces Cabernet Sauvignon, Zinfandel, and Chardonnay from estate hillside and benchland vineyard blocks with the dual-heritage warmth the combined naming implies.
