HANDS ON APPROACH
August Briggs Winery is an owner-managed craft producer of small lot and sustainably produced wines showcasing some of Napa and Sonoma’s premier vineyards focused on a restrained winemaking philosophy that highlights wines of provenance, not pretense. When you come visit us, it is likely you will meet with one of our welcoming owners, Matt and Colette, who live by their hands-on management style, ‘You get back what you put in’.
Our eclectic portfolio includes single vineyard and appellation bottlings of Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir, Syrah, Malbec, Pinot Meunier, Zinfandel, Petit Verdot, Chardonnay, Charbono and Pinot Blanc.
Matt and Colette’s ownership of August Briggs is defined by a dedicated hands-on approach. This focuses not just on highlighting an eclectic selection of varietals, but also providing each and every guest to August Briggs a connection to what makes small owner-operated wineries so unique: the combination of stellar winemaking with providing consumers a true insight into the joy that wine can bring to our lives.
Both can be found in the vineyard and at the winery during harvest, ensuring their philosophy shines through the wines. The rest of the year, Matt focuses on marketing and sales, whilst Colette focuses on the business side of the winery functions.
