Starting in 2017, von Strasser relocated the winery and expanded their labels. In late 2015, von Strasser Winery added Lava Vine Winery to their portfolio. Lava Vine, a small Calistoga tasting room, is known for its ‘alternative varietal’ portfolio of wines. The facility at Lava Vine has been expanded to include an ultra-modern fermentation and barrel aging building. The Lava Vine brand already has a loyal following thanks to their great wines and friendly tasting room. Over the next few years, Rudy will slowly expand the Lava Vine brand to focus on Pinot Noir, Grenache, Petite Sirah and Grüner Veltliner. However, do not be surprised when offered a taste of Cabernet Franc, Malbec, Tempranillo, Charbono, or Zinfandel. Rudy will also continue to make his world class Von Strasser label single vineyard Cabernet Sauvignons.
