Description
When Vintners Hall of Fame inductee Miljenko “Mike“ Grgich was an enology student in Communist Yugoslavia, a professor whispered to him that California was a “Paradise.” It took Mike four years of hard work before he finally arrived in Napa in 1958, 60 years ago this year. Mike fell in love with a prized property next to the famed Napanook Vineyard which was being planted to Cabernet. When the vineyard was uprooted to make way for Highway 29 and then replanted, Mike never forgot it. He knew this vineyard was one of Napa Valley's finest. The property was offered for sale and he attempted to buy it on several occasions, but fell short. Finally, in 1984, he realized his dream and acquired this special vineyard. He knew that one block was planted to the esteemed Inglenook Clone and that the vines produced an exquisitely concentrated and intense wine with great depth and complexity. Today, they are some of the oldest Cabernet Sauvignon vines in the Napa Valley. We offer this special blend as a reminder of Mike’s struggle to be free from Communism and his persistence in trying to buy this unique block in a valley he still calls “Paradise.”

Ivo Jeramaz
Winemaker, Grgich Hills Estate
Ivo was born in Croatia to a family of grape growers, and, as a boy, he assisted in making wine for his family's enjoyment. However, he didn't plan on becoming a winemaker. Ivo earned a Master of Science degree in engineering from the University of Zagreb and dreamed of coming to California to work as an engineer. In 1986, with the help of his uncle, Miljenko "Mike" Grgich, Ivo followed his dream and came to Napa Valley. He quickly fell in love with the scenic beauty of the area and became fascinated with wine making. Ivo decided on a career change, and Mike immediately put him to work washing barrels.
During his almost three decades at Grgich Hills Estate, Ivo has worked his way up in responsibility, learning the classic style and art of winemaking from his uncle, supported by the tools of science and technology. "There's nothing in the winery or vineyard that I haven't done, not just for one day, but really worked at it," he explains. While he has taken enology and viticulture courses at the University of California, Davis, he says, "I've learned more working in the vineyards and in the winery with Mike."
Under the guidance of his uncle, Ivo is now responsible for the day-to-day operations in the cellar and the vineyard, including naturally farming Grgich Hills Estate's 366 acres without artificial fertilizers, pesticides or herbicides.
"At Grgich Hills Estate, we grow grapes like my grandfather did, farming without chemicals and pesticides," Ivo says. "Mike taught me early in my career that you need great grapes to make great wine. Over the years, I've focused on working with the land. Through our natural farming, it's been very rewarding to seeing the soil alive with healthier plants than under conventional farming. It allows the wines to be more authentic, more distinctive."
