On a modest budget Loren Tayerle put together a small
functional winery in the O2 Artisans Aggregate, a compound of artisans and craftsmen in industrial West Oakland (Baja Napa!). There the focus is on authentic handcrafted small lot wine production, emphasizing gentle handling techniques to bring purity, balance and expression of terroir to the varietal. Loren joined David Bruce in 1994 to work the crush and soon became a member of the production and winemaking team. At David Bruce, Loren gained experience with Pinot Noir drawn from as many as fifty different vineyards and a dozen appellations and continued on in a similar vein at Rosenblum Cellars gaining further experience with other varietals. Loren is consulting winemaker for Aubin Cellar’s Verve and Ranchita Canyon Vineyards.

Loren brings a sense of aesthetics to winemaking from a career as a classical musician. Precision, attention to details, unity, intensity and complexity translate equally from the concert hall to the vineyard and cellar. Loren received a Bachelors degree in French Horn performance and a Masters degree in orchestral and choral conducting from the San Francisco Conservatory of Music. Loren still maintains a busy performance schedule with the Carmel Bach Festival, Berkeley Symphony, and San Francisco Chamber Orchestra and is conductor of the De Anza Chamber Orchestra. Loren has continued his studies in Viticulture and Enology at U.C. Davis and Napa Valley College and through travels to the Old World winegrowing regions of the world.

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
