Altamura Vineyards and Winery was established in 1985 by Frank and Karen Altamura and is the only winery in Wooden Valley, located west of Oakville in Napa County. Stags' Leap Winery, Pahlmeyer and Caymus and other top names purchase grapes from this area, although Altamura is the first to capture Wooden Valley's special characteristics in a bottling. Napa natives Frank and Karen have a decidedly hands-on approach to every step of the growing and winemaking process. Thus, a natural production limit is established and the wines reflect the Altamura's deep commitment to reflecting the terroir of their Wooden Valley Ranch.
