They’re so big and bold and beautiful!
What good is sitting alone in your room?
Come let your taste buds play
With these three Cabernets, old chum
Order some Cabernets
This one’s dark and rich and made by Kunde
Perfect on holidays
Like you some Cabernet, old chum?
Order these Cabernets
Come taste the wine; we know you’ll be glad
Click “I Want One;” start celebrating
Not right away, account for shipping
How good can this two-thousand-five Reserve be?
It’ll wipe all your cares away
Like you some Cabernet, old chum?
So order these Cabernets!
We really like this Cab we got from Drummond
The heaps of hillside fruit have our mouths hummin’
Notes of supple tannins, cherries at full power
You can sit back and sip this one for hours
The day it comes your neighbors will try to shmooze
Well, that’s what comes from owning high class booze
But when you see its legs run down the glass
You’ll be the happiest lad or perhaps lass
We think of Cabs most every day
If we were sharing one with you we’d turn and say
What good is sitting all alone in your room?
Come hear the music play,
You fancy Cabernets, old chum?
Come have some Cabernet!
And as for us, and as for us
We made our mind up back in Dallas
When these come we’re keeping them for us
Start by admitting, from vine to bottle
It’s a long, slow way
To be a great Cabernet, old chum
Try out these Cabernets, old chum
You’ll love these Cabernets!

Winery Details
Kunde Family Estate Winery
- Founded:
- 1904
- Owners:
- Kunde Family
- Location:
- Sonoma Valley
Family owned and operated, Kunde Family Estate produces ultra-premium, estate-grown, and sustainably farmed wines in the finest traditions of the renowned Sonoma Valley. Our founder, Louis Kunde, who emigrated from Germany, acquired the Wildwood Vineyards ranch with its acclaimed iron-rich, ancient red volcanic soils in 1904. These vineyards were first planted in 1879 by pioneer John Drummond with imported cuttings from Chateaux Margaux and Lafite Rothschild. Upon Louis’ death in 1922, the winery and vineyards were taken over by his son, Arthur “Big Boy” Kunde. Big Boy kept the winery open during the difficult times of Prohibition by selling “sacramental” wines, and though he continued to grow grapes through World War II, he was forced to close the winery doors when his sons were drafted into service. Throughout the 1960’s and ‘70’s, two of Big Boy’s sons, Bob and Fred, greatly expanded the Kunde Estate, adding the esteemed Kinneybrook Ranch in 1977. Planting hundreds of acres to prime varietals, their hard work and savvy business decisions laid the groundwork for building the Kunde Family Estate Winery and aging caves in the early 1990’s.
In October 2004, three-generations of the Kunde family gathered with friends to celebrate our 100th harvest, and to honor all the hard work and dedication that came through us and before us. As we enter the next century of winegrowing, the fourth and fifth generation family members remain hands-on proprietors. We now oversee an operation comprised of our state-of-the-art winemaking facility and 1,850 contiguous acres, of which 700 acres are planted to more than twenty different varieties of wine grapes.
