1997 Thomas Coyne "Cabernets" Livermore Valley Bordeaux Blend

Thomas Coyne Winery was founded in 1989 by Thomas Coyne, a former chemical engineer who developed his winemaking skills while working with Kent Rosenblum at Rosenblum Cellars. In 1994, Coyne moved his operation to the historic Château Bellevue property in Livermore Valley, where he established a reputation for small-production wines emphasizing Rhône varieties, Merlot, and distinctive vineyard sources throughout California. Known for his hands-on approach and commitment to craftsmanship, Coyne kept annual production below 5,000 cases until his death in 2015.
