Our Love Collection showcases California’s best organically farmed and unsung grape varieties at an affordable price. All Broc Cellar wines are made using spontaneous fermentation, which means only native yeasts and bacteria that exist on the grapes are used to make wine. We don’t add anything – this includes nutrients, yeast, bacteria, enzymes, tannins or other popular fermentation agents. Sulphur is a naturally occurring element in all wine, the amount found can vary. Sulphur is never added during fermentation and aging. We add little to no S02 at bottling, depending on the wine, year and style.

Don't miss out on this inaugural olive oil freshly pressed and harvested from our Fox Hill Vineyard in Mendocino. Olio Nuovo means new oil in Italian and is made from the season's first picked and pressed olives. This is a fresh, green and well-balanced oil on the palate that's meant to be enjoyed now. This oil isn't for cooking with heat but instead is best used as a finishing olive oil for a variety of dishes, for dipping or for use in salads.

The 100% extra virgin olive oil is made from a variety of organically grown olive trees that stretch along the border of Fox Hill Vineyard. The soils and climate at Fox Hill mimic the climate of Italy's Piedmont region, making it a welcoming place for olive trees to grow. The oil is made from 90% green olives that were not fully ripe and 10% ripe black olives. Hand harvested in the morning and cold-pressed the same day and left unfiltered. Hand bottled and labeled with care.

THE STORY: The Nouveau is our way of capturing in bottle the most exciting time of the year – harvest. The Nouveau is a blend of rosé and red wine, everything we brought in and made this year. Fox Hill Vineyard Sangiovese makes the base of the Nouveau and a co-fermented blend of more than 30 grape varieties we brought in and pressed. After each pressing, we captured a little juice from each lot into a stainless tank as a combination of free run and pressing, which then underwent natural fermentation in the tank. Similar to how no two wines are the same, each harvest brings in its own fun, challenges and surprises. This harvest was a short and speedy one, with grapes coming in within a short window of time due to weather patterns that coaxed grapes along throughout the year…and they all were ready at the same time. Capturing everything together in one bottle is a fun way to look back on this busy and fun season.

FUN FACT : This is the first vintage where the base of our harvest blend is mostly Italian varieties from our estate Fox Hill Vineyard in Mendocino.

VARIETIES: 2025 Harvest Blend

LOCATION: California

FARMING PRACTICES: Organically grown grapes

ALCOHOL: 12%

Tasting Notes: Fruit punch on the nose, strawberry margarita and cherry jolly rancher on the palate.

Aqua Vino is a story of hydration and winemaking. It started with Valdiguié grapes that initially came in to make our Love Rosé. After a short maceration, we lightly pressed off the juice for the wine, being mindful not to overpress so we could make a nice Rosé. We were left with grapes that had a good amount of Valdiguié juice so we put the skins into a stainless tank and filled it with water until the grapes were barely submerged. We let it macerate for three days, pressed it back into tank where it fermented for one week, then transferred it into pressurized tanks while the wine was still slightly sweet to finish fermentation. It was blended with our Nouveau wine - a blend of everything we brought in from the past harvest. We wanted to create something new to share with you - bubbly, lower in alcohol and fun to drink. 

FUN FACT:  Berkeley Water used to hydrate the grape skins makes up roughly 25% of Aqua Vino. The water comes from the Sierra snowmelt in the Mokelumne River watershed. It tastes great!

INGREDIENTS:  Valdguié Grapes and Berkeley Water

ALCOHOL: 9%

FOOD PAIRING: Something off the grill - burgers, seasonal veggies, or a hearty cheese plate. This wine will brighten up any dish.

THE STORY: Love White is that easy-drinking, high quality white that’s always there when the moment arises. The varieties in our Rhône inspired blend has evolved over the years, but remains rooted in its complexity, light aromatics and uplifting body. This vintage is made up of mostly Picpoul, Grenache Blanc and Clairette. To complete the blend we added a little Orange Muscat, which added inviting aromatics, pleasant acidity and balance. This year we also added skin contact Vermentino from our Fox Hill Vineyard that was aged and fermented in concrete egg. It’s special. We can’t get enough of this vintage. All white grapes receive a light footstomp on arrival at the winery. It’s an important step for two reasons: We like the complexity the short skin contact gives the wine and, more functionally, treading breaks up the clusters to better fit everything into the press. After a gentle press, the wine goes into mostly neutral barrique with a small fraction into stainless steel tank and the Vermentino into concrete egg where it’s fermented and aged. 

VARIETIES: 32% Picpoul, 30% Grenache Blanc, 22% Clairette, 9% Orange Muscat and 7% Vermentino 

FARMING: Organically grown grapes

ALCOHOL: 11.5%

Tasting Notes: Bright and aromatic profile with notes of lemongrass and zesty yuzu

A unique expression of Chardonnay that has the vivacity only California can provide to Chardonnay with the crisp balance of fruit and acidity akin to a Chablis-style wine. This Chardonnay has a long history with us, starting with our first vintage in 2010. The Michael Mara Vineyard sits along the Sonoma Mountain range in the Sonoma Coast AVA. It’s a unique site for growing Chardonnay in California with the fruit absorbing lots of the marine air along with minerality from the rocky soil. We brought in the grapes whole cluster and directly pressed. The juice fermented naturally in two stockinger Austrian oak puncheons. Aged on the lees for 10 months. The result is an approachable wine for chardonnay lovers, novices and dare we say – even skeptics. Age up to 20 years.

VARIETIES: 100% Chardonnay

VINEYARD: Michael Mara Vineyard

ALCOHOL: 12% 

FOOD PAIRING: Roasted chicken or miso-glazed fish. Also a go to for Thanksgiving or Holiday guests drinking white only at the dinner table.
