Lomax Me No Questions

Look, rock candy is wonderful and all, but you're an adult now. You need an entirely different mountain to dream about.

In the Big Cabernet Mountain
There's leather and there's sage
Into your nose
those scents all float
And makes you move your legs

Towards the Big Cabernet Mountain
you can smell brown sugar there
And caramel too
With a cherry hue
The overall feel is supple and smooth
At the Big Cabernet Mountain

At the Big Cabernet Mountain
the pipe tobacco's faint
the 3-pack's '07 and
there's never a complaint

There's a flavor of tart cherries
A finish clean and grand
Goes good with food
And also fun
It's made by Peter Wellington
at the Big Cabernet Mountain

Just remember, please, that you must order now. There's this woman coming around the mountain, and when SHE comes, she's going to be buying it all up.

Winery Details

Wellington Vineyards

Founded:
1986
Owner:
Peter Wellington
Location:
Glen Ellen, CA
Wellington Vineyards is owned Peter Wellington. Peter's father John purchased the winery site in 1986. At the time, it consisted of 20 acres of old vines and a few decrepit old fruit and nut trees. Replanting of part of the old vineyard and orchard started in 1988. The winery was completed in time for the 1989 crush. We grow approximately half the grapes we use and purchase the remainder, primarily from small, unique vineyards.
 
The estate vineyards consist of 21 acres, 8 of which are 85 to 117 years old. There are 24 different varieties in the old vineyard, with the most common being Zinfandel, Carignan, Alicante Bouschet, Grenache and Syrah. In addition, there are 10 acres of eleven to sixteen year old vines that consist of Merlot, Chardonnay, Marsanne, and Syrah. We grow more Merlot than anything else. Three more acres were replanted in 2001, predominantly to Syrah, Zinfandel and Grenache.
