GRO Wines proprietor Lars Bjorkman attended UC Davis to pursue a medical degree but later discovered his heart was in viticulture and enology. After receiving his degree from the world-renowned winemaking program, Lars worked in Sonoma County, Australia, and Napa Valley. Today, he works alongside owner and winemaking master Nils Venge at Saddleback Cellars in Oakville. 

 

Lars, his wife, and co-proprietor Molly Hill, also a graduate of UC Davis in the viticulture and enology program, search for charismatic vineyard sites to craft small-lot, single-vineyard wines. Mt. Veeder is the lowest yielding AVA in Napa Valley due to its rugged, volcanic soils and proximity to the San Pablo Bay, providing the Haspel Vineyard an exceptional combination of elements to produce this elegant, cool-climate-influenced style of Chardonnay.
