Producer Information
Migration Wines is owned by TSG Consumer Partners, a San Francisco based private equity firm. In addition to Migration, TSG Consumer Partners owns Duckhorn (their flagship brand), Calera Wine Company in the Mount Harlan appellation east of Salinas in San Benito County on California’s Central Coast (a long time producer known for Pinot Noir), Canvasback (originally a label part of Paraduxx – now a Walla Walla, Washington based vineyard and brand), Decoy (can taste at Duckhorn), Greenwing (eastern Washington), Goldeneye (based to the north of the Napa Valley in Anderson Valley, Mendocino County), Kosta Browne Winery in Sonoma County and Paraduxx and Postmark (both Napa Valley). In addition to these wineries or brands, the company owns approximately 900 vineyard acres (15+ unique sites ranging in size from 5 acre parcels up to 75 acres) with a total production of over 900,000 cases.Their focus is almost entirely on Chardonnay and Pinot Noir although they do produce limited production bottlings of other varieties. At the time of our visit and the latest update to this review, Migration produces no Napa Valley grown wines (certainly an anomaly for a Napa Valley based winery and tasting room – although perhaps in the future they will source grapes from the Napa Valley). Their first Pinot Noir was produced in 2001 and the first Chardonnay produced in 2008. Their focus is on crafting wines from grapes grown in vineyards in neighboring Sonoma County – but they also source from select vineyards in San Luis Obispo and Santa Barbara counties.
