Colgin Cellars
Exciting times here at Bin 905 with the new arrivals of some of the most world-renowned wines, and Colgin Cellars is the gem among them. Owner Ann Barry Colgin, heralded as one the greatest visionaries in the world of wine has created a legend with her passion and artistic nature. Located north of St. Helena, California overlooking Lake Hennessy, the colgin estate is a perfect reflection of Ann’s lifestyle. The IX estate is the newest of the Vineyards planted in 2000 with 20 acres of cabernet sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Syrah. Tychson Vineyard, a vineyard with rich terroir and history dating back all the way to the late 1800’s, was originally owned by Josephine Tychson who was by many accounts, the very first female winemaker. In 2005 Colgin Winemaker Mark Aubert left Colgin and was replaced by the radiant Allison Tauziet, whose passion has taken Colgin wines in a direction that can only be defined as a “Stairway to Heaven”. Colgin Winery is the clear-cut portrayal as to why California is among the world’s greatest wine growing regions.
