About the producer
Motorcycle enthusiast Manfred Krankl is Austrian by birth but arrived in the USA in the 1980s. He was involved in a bakery and restaurant business when he and his wife Elaine decided to start dabbling in wine. They experimented with a few bottlings at first, making a wine with Havens Cellars (called Black and Blue) and several in collaboration with John Alban (of Alban Vineyards).
