3 Q U A L I T Y C O N S I S T E N C Y V A L U E With four generations and over 50 years of grape growing experience since 1938, McManis Family Vineyards is now one of the premier wine and grape producers in California. Owned and operated since 1990 by Ron and Jamie McManis, McManis Family Vineyards now farms over 2000 acres of premium wine grapes located throughout the Northern Interior of California. Today the McManis Family Vineyards and Winery has much to offer its customers. Ultra premium grape growing and winemaking methods prevail featuring selected rootstocks and clones, leaf pulling, cluster thinning and drip irrigation in the vineyards. Whole cluster pressing, small lot fermentation and traditional oak aging and storage in the winery, all designed to provide the winemaking team at McManis Family Vineyards the tools they need to produce the finest wines possible. Taste the Quality and Enjoy!

4 MCMANIS FAMILY VINEYARD WINEMAKERS Our award winning winemaking team is headed by industry veterans Jeff Runquist, Mike Robustelli and Luke Holcombe. With well over 45 years of winemaking knowledge, experience and education between them, they lead a talented staff of enologists and cellar masters with an attitude that they can do anything with effort and hard work. McManis Family Vineyards provides its winemaking team with not only state-of-the-art equipment, but also the working environment to make the best wines possible from the grapes grown. While emphasizing viticultural practices that suit the area and the soil types in which the grapes are planted, the winemaking team matches the best grapes to the unique conditions to make a wine that best reflects that one-of-a-kind combination. Each of the wines share a similar theme of fresh fruit, reflective of varietal flavors inherent in the grapes. If warranted, a wine may be accented with just the right amount of oak aging to further enhance its flavor and complexity.

9 A PERFECT FIT MCMANIS FAMILY VINEYARD APPELLATIONS River Junction Appellation Located at the confluence of the Stanislaus and San Joaquin Rivers. The river basin is a depository for cooler air and is consistently 2-5 degrees cooler than the surrounding farmlands. This cooler climate combined with the soil quality make them ideally suited for Pinot Noir, as well as Chardonnay, Viognier and some of the other whites currently offered by McManis Family Vineyards. Borden Ranch Appellation Located in east central Lodi, it is the most topographically diverse area of the Lodi Appellation with elevations ranging from 73 feet in the west to 520 feet in the east. The region features well drained, stone-laden soils that are ideally suited for well structured red wines such as our Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Clements Hill Appellation Located in southeastern Lodi it is characterized by rolling hills and cliffs at the base of the Sierra Foothills. It is generally warmer and wetter than western Lodi and is particularly prized for growing red varieties such as our Zinfandel, Syrah and Petite Sirah.
