Satori Cellars gets its name from two sources: Sandy, Tom & Riley who own the vineyard and manage the winery, and from the Zen Buddhist term meaning “a taste of enlightenment” or “sudden unbidden moments of absolute stillness and peace in which time stops and the perfection and beauty of creation shine forth”. 

Satori Cellars believes that great wine and great fruit are inseparable. They believe winemakers create better wines when they are intimately involved in the vineyard and the vineyard caretakers do a better job when they are intimately involved in the winemaking process. At Satori Cellars the same few people are immersed in all activities whether it’s planting, pruning, or picking grapes from their 15 acre vineyard or crushing, pressing, racking, or bottling their wines.
