"Have you ever had a very cool friend who owns an amazing mid-century modern house on the cliffs of Malibu? Yeah, neither have we. But a visit to Ashes & Diamonds is what we imagine that must feel like. The food-friendly, lower alcohol wines express the 1960s style of Napa Valley winemaking, natural for pairing with all manner of exceptional, deceptively casual foods by chef Ethan Speizer. While several wine tastings include cheeses or other small bites, the wine-and-food experience ($175) is the most substantial and features five wines with family-style dishes, including a recent beet preparation that nods at the classic Jewish bagel and schmear. The wines and menu both change seasonally." - Dianne de Guzman, Laura Smith Borrman, Eater Staff

"Ashes & Diamonds Winery is a love letter to Napa as it was when it first took the world stage in the 1960s. Located at the gateway to the Valley, along its main artery Highway 29, Ashes & Diamonds’ mid-century approach extends seamlessly through its viticulture, winemaking, and architecture. The resulting wines are a wide-ranging convergence of modern and old-school flavors, all of which adhere to an ethos of light-handed winemaking and transparency of terroir."
