"Wine is the most civilized thing in the world."
Ernest Hemingway

We, of Course, Believe Hemingway Was Correct

But we also feel passionately that some wines are more civilized than others.

Ours, for example.

Far Niente, as well as all the other wines in our family exude a level of sophistication, elegance and wine wisdom that few wines can approach.

Our 135-year history has imbued us with knowledge and expertise that manifests itself through the soil, the vines, the aging, and more than anything else, the finished product.

If wine is indeed the most civilized thing in the world, we’re proud to be in the vanguard of civilization.

Bella Union is a natural and glorious next step in our evolution as Cabernet winemakers. This is wine that exemplifies the fine art of blending Napa Valley Cabernet. Our flagship vineyard is located near Bella Oaks Lane in the storied Cabernet AVA of Rutherford.

The name, Bella Union, is a nod to the history of Bella Oaks Lane which was known as the Bella Union Roadway in the 1880s.

Dolce is the only winery in North America solely dedicated to producing a single, late harvest wine. Few wineries commit to such an undertaking, and our commitment is realized in every single sip.

Indeed, we share that dedication with the finest Sauternes created in Bordeaux.
